I was just sitting here thinking (which can be dangerous sometimes lol) what happened to pen pals? I use to have 'em all over the world when I was a kid. What if we did that here? Maybe have our kids write a mini-profile about themselves and we can arrange for them to write to each other. And by mini-profile i mean : name, age, location, interests. Keep it simple. My girls are willing. (they are 9 and 12 by the way) And it can be either snail mail (old school way :) ) or e-mail..

What do you think?

If yes, then I'll start.....

Miah (girl) 9 years old - b-day 6-14
4th grade
California
Is a blue belt in taekwondo, loves art, dancing, music, reading, acting, origami and computers (and more)

Kyla (girl) 12 years old - b-day 3-20
7th grade
California
Is a Level 6 competitive rhythmic gymnast (and has gone to nationals 2 years in a row!), takes ballet, loves reading, music, computers, art, making friendship bracelets and other things for her friends and for sale, loves to crochet (and more)

If you'd like your child to write to either (or both) of mine send me a message.
If this doesn't work, that's fine too, but it was worth a try!!!
