I spent some time last week pouring over old letters from friends and family, my husband and children, when I pulled out a stack of postcards from Paris a friend had written more than twenty years ago. I admired the stamp, the postmark, the weight of the paper. My box of cards and letters reminded me that a letter or note doesn't necessarily have to be long, as long as the message is clear: I care. So this week, I will purchase a stack of pretty postcards and grab a roll of stamps (29 cents vs. 44 cents for a letter) and I will send them off with a smile.

I love postcards! During my trip through Europe I sent out a lot of postcards to friends. I loved seeing them posted on refrigerators and bulletin boards when I got back home.
And they don't take quite as much effort as writing a letter. Thanks for sharing, Kelsi. I'll be sure to check out your blog soon.
