Letter ExchangeLulu & Em received their second letter yesterday from 2 little girls in Texas. What a wonderful surprise to receive a large envelope filled with a letter telling all about the sisters, a picture of the girls, a postcard showing the state flower, a painting, a map showing where the girls were adopted from, a handmade book for me(!) and two beautiful felt button cards for the girls to practice buttoning! Wow! I think there was a very crafty mama behind all this wonderfulness! The girls and I did not expect such a great package. Thank you! We all loved it!
I was inspired by the 2 maps that were included in the package. I created a project using a map! Stay tuned.

Oh the pressure, now I feel mine has got to be great! Fun stuff!
I love Texas. I was born there and lived there most of my life. Love the project.
When I first loaded your blog, and saw the picture, I said "Oh, WOW!" out-loud. What a fun package!! I love seeing what great things you guys get from the letter/artwork exchange... so much fun! :-)
Ditto what Katie said! Ah well. Those felt cards look really cool!
I love that state map!
Please do not feel you have to send Lulu anything more than a letter or drawing from your child. She is just excited to receive mail and look for your home states/ countries on her map!
Branflakes: I got the map at the Dollar Tree.
did you get an email with your swap partner info? I need to get it to you, but I'm getting emails that say that it's undeliverable...
