For parent essays did you specify which parent was writing or use the parental “we?”

I wrote our parent essays and used “we”, but also used “I” when I referred to my own boarding school experience. I listed myself as the “primary” contact parent on the application also.
I used “we”. Oops, I mean we used “we”.
I used we, too.
@busymommyof4 how did you do this? I started out with “we” but then at some point wanted to refer to my own BS experience and wrote “I” and then went back to “we” and decided that looked weird. So then I thought about referring to myself in the 3rd person and using “we” the rest of the time, but thought that was weird too.
I’ll have to pull it up and look - I think I just started a separate paragraph and assumed they would identify me as the parent since they had our profile with educational backgrounds, etc.
We are the "I"s in “we.”
