Miss Holly was so excited to receive her first letter from her "bestest cousin friend" Hannah!
For school this year I thought it would be fun for all of us to take a moment every other week to write someone a letter. The kids have really enjoyed this and have been so excited receiving letters in return. Emailing, texting, IMing and so many other ways of communicating have taken over hand written letters, stamps, and the excitement of a surprise in the mailbox. It's almost a lost art in a way. My kids get to chose who they write and so far their choices have ranged from grandparents to friends from different states they have never met in real life. Not all of them have received letters in return, but most of them have. It has been so much fun!!!! The excitement when Holly and Jameson received return letters from their cousins was contagious!
Take a moment to bless someone with a handwritten card or letter....it will bless you too!!!!
Hi I read in an earlier post that some of the kids do a program of school online. I've considered this for a couple of my teens and wondered what the pros and cons of it are. Any concerns? Benefits? Thanks so much.. Vicki
