Friend

I just received a letter from a high school friend, so of course, I need a card to send back to her.  Hopefully, before too many months have gone by. : )  It always seems like writing a letter is something I am "going" to do and then all of a sudden I realize it's been forever and I need to get it written.  Maybe I'll be better this time.  At least in this stage of life, (young motherhood) everyone realizes that you are busy and don't have a lot of free time.  I better not let them see my card stash!  I hope you all have friends to whom you still write actual letters.  They are so  much better than e-mail.  There is just something about holding a handwritten note in your hand.  Isn't that why we are making cards?
