“Dear Great Grandma, I am sorry you are falling apart...”
This one ended up being a two-fer. We sent one card/letter to my grandma. She lives in another state and has been in the hospital for almost one month and has just had one heck of a time there. I wrote down a note as Quinn (my 4 year old daughter) narrated. She started with, "Dear Great Grandma. I love you and miss you. I am sorry you are falling apart..." We glued some hearts on the card and sent it on it's way.
The second card was to Quinn's new pen-pal in Michigan. Quinn was really excited when she received a letter and drawing from Kate in the mail last week and we couldn't wait to reciprocate. Quinn drew a great picture, let Kate know some things about herself and asked Kate lots of great questions. She also made it clear that she wanted to be Kate's pen-pal - a BIG pen-pal :)
Quinn's favorite thing about this Boom Boom! was making the cards together. That really surprised me and made me feel happy. I really enjoyed making these cards with Quinn and it feels good to send some love to friends and loved ones who live far away. There is nothing like going out to the mailbox and getting a hand addressed envelope with a handmade card and note inside. Boom Boom!

Way to go Becky and Quinn! It's so cool the Quinn has a pen pal in Michigan. It's been a long time since I've heard anyone still doing the pen pal thing so it's cool to know that it still exists! Very cool. Boom Boom! to both of you.
Kids say the darndest things...especially Quinn! Made me crack up.
