A mother from Portland, Oregon, has gone viral after sharing a sweet new birthday tradition that captures the precious moments in her son's life as each new stage hits.

A mother from Oregon has come up with a unique way to capture some special moments as her son celebrates his birthday each year. Emily Mesa, a 31-year-old work-from-home mom in Portland, has launched a new birthday tradition that she plans on continuing for her two sons, Leon, 4 and Jones, 2. It's such a great idea, apparently, that social media users have been wanting to try it themselves, in lieu of holding a grand party.

loved it because he was like sprinting around the room he would answer one question … then we'd have to be like, 'OK, come on, we just have a couple more things we want to ask you,' and he was excited about it,' Mesa recalled. Mesa said she loved how genuine Leon's answers were and how the interview 'captured exactly who he is' without anyone putting pressure on him or telling him what to say.

Sooo cute. I have to start doing this,' one user wrote on Instagram. 'This is beautiful. Definitely doing this with all 4 kiddos,' another wrote. One user even asked fellow commenters to share questions that she should ask her kids. Mesa enjoyed reading responses from fellow mothers who said they hope to conduct interviews for their own children's birthdays.
