52 Projects #34 - Writing letters...

52_proj_badge_v2









I meant to write some letters a few months ago and I saw myself sitting yesterday, asking why I have not done that?  Surely I can find 10-15 minutes to at least start a few lines.  So, today I decided to sit my "rear" and write some letters that I meant to do.  There are 5 total.  The letter part is done, now I just need to do a little bundle for 3 of them.  Two of the letters are going to Honduras and Bolivia.  They are for the 2 girls that we sponsor through ChildFund if you are interested in help here is the link www.childfund.org  .  We had been part of this organization since 2007.  I get letters and updates from the organization and from them too.  It is nice.
The other letters are for my pen pals.  Each of them are very unique and talented women.  I wish we lived closer, but at least we are getting to know each other through paper.  I feel happy that I finally finished writing them, now my brain can keep repeating me to do another thing :)

This is sweet project! There's something so special about a handwritten letter in the mail, and so much rarer these days.

Erika,

This is such a good and important project. I think the internet is wonderful but an email will never be the same as a handwritten letter. I delight in seeing something personal for me come in the mail. Just the other day I was organizing various letters that I've received and thought of you. I'm off to send you one now :))
