In the 4,810-day parenting diary that the author wrote in her mother’s 4,810-day diary until the day the author entered middle school, the scene where the child who could not speak vaguely spit out certain words, the memory of the mother’s first birthday present from her daughter was salt, and the memory of a mother who is older than her mother. The story of the first daughter growing up, who loves her, drinks milk every day, and takes care of her younger sister. All of the work was made based on the contents of the diary. For example, if the photo was taken based on the diary in February 1990, it is the result of selecting and completing old photos of the artist in February 1990. The working period was carried out for one year, the same as the general farming period.
