Summer Penpals 2012

Ok Everyone!!! We are going to try this again! The program is free... open to all LDS families, and it's super fun! We will be doing the momma penpal list again also.

Here is what I need... your name, your childrens names and ages, your address and make sure your email address is visible. Let me know if you want to be on the momma list :)

Email me at jaelleerica@yahoo.com

Let's try to have all emails in by June 1st so we can get a good list going!! :)

Love to all!!!

Also, don't forget that we have our new site open at www.ldsparenting.blogspot.com and we have a facebook page ! :)

So Happy To Be Back!

Hello my dear penpal friends! After a nice break for the summer Im back and so excited! Thank you so very much to Amy for taking over for me! Congrats to her and her family on their new addition that will be arriving next year! :)

We have alot of news and things to update. Unfortunately things got a little mixed up during the summer so I have to ask you all to send me an updated list of kids names, ages, address and birthdays please! We will be sending out birthday cards to the penpals from me :) I love mail and letters can you tell?

Please email me at jaelleerica@yahoo.com for now... we are in the process of getting the ldspenpals email back up and running. We have alot of new things to do and new service projects and more.

Momma's who want to be on the momma penpal list, please let me know, I am going to be working on getting the momma's group together better. I want to give everyone options on whether they want to write everyone or just a few on the list and I also want to set up a meet and greet chat time soon.

We will still be having only one penpal per person, but please please feel free to write your old penpals, those are great friendships!

At this time, Im finding out where good ole flat stanley is, and getting things rolling with him again, he still has lots of places to go! If you would like on the list please email me! :)

For now, the main focus is on getting everyones addresses, ages, names and birthdays so I can sit down and get everyone all figured out :) It is a perfect time to start doing penpals again with the school year starting and it always seems easier to get into a routine of writing your penpals during the school year!

Once again, Im so incredibly happy to be back and I hope you are all happy to have me back! Its so close to my heart. Thanks so much to Amy again for taking over for me so I could have a big ole break!!!!

With Love,
