Our New Pen Pal

Megan has a pen pal.  I know, it seems almost archaic that people would still have pen pals.   I started an exchange on my Mom board where the children could buddy up and have a pen pal to send correspondence to.  Our kids are at an age where they love getting mail and meeting other kids. 

We were paired with adorable Harper who lives in upstate New York.  Megan had written (ok, dictated to me) a letter, after reviewing tons of photos of Harper online and seeing Harper's stash of Barbies, Megan wanted to send her a pic with all her Barbies.  And she colored a few things for her too.  It was all too cute!  Before I sent the letter, she ran to the door to tell me good bye and told me, "Make sure you tell Hawper I love her, ok?" 

Well, we received a letter this weekend in the mail and Megan was beyond thrilled.  We had gone bowling and I finally checked the mail.  It was way past her bedtime, but she was going to open that letter, she was so excited!







Just being goofy because she just loved it all.
