I love sending notes and letters and newspaper clippings to people. I love sending pictures from the newspaper to kids. I love when one of my photocards is perfect for someone. I love writing missionaries (even ones I don't know). When my nephew left on his mission I decided I would write him every week (real letters mailed right to Argentina). I still remember the day I found four letters from my mom in my college dorm mailbox.
People love getting mail. So write someone a letter. ~Ellen Patton

I will write my grandmother a letter tomorrow! And I have a few thank you notes to mail off. Thanks for inspiring me.
Amen Sista, well said!
Writing letters and sending cards is one of my true loves. Thanks for another excuse to get on it!
So true! With computers we no longer use the mail as much! I know me and my kids LOVE mail!
Great idea!
My younger/est brother is leaving for Mexico city a week from today and I am just so worried about him. Mostly, that he will not be homesick. I have a goal for myself that I am going to write him a letter every week and send a package of any size once a month. This post couldn't have come at a better time to help me be even more motivated!
I LOVE getting Ellen Patton mail!
I have also been the recipient of your fun mail and have LOVED it! Thanks for the reminder Ellen...who doesn't love getting something fun in the mail? It is definately a rare treat in this digital age!
Love this picture Ellen! I want a 16x20 for my wall! I'm going to write my grandparents today, thanks for the encouragement. Nancy
OK. I will.
yes mail rocks~ps email your snail mail address
I was so happy when missionaries could start getting e-mail instead of letters.
I can't remember to mail anything...ever.
I do love getting stuff from you though! E-mail and regular mail....deal with it. (j/k)
I have forgotten to thank you for the London article that you sent me. I put it with all of my trip materials and hope that we can make one of those swank shops, even just to browse!
i enjoyed getting the "i dream about storage space" postcard from you. snail mail is more personal and thoughtful. thanks for the reminder!
i love it when i get letters in the mail. thanks for all the fun ones you send us!
That's so true. There's nothing like getting a REAL letter in the mail. Thanks for the reminder!
You will always be known as a true letter-writer (or card-writer as the case may be). I've always really admired that about you. You are always thinking of others and you don't just THINK of sending them something like so many of us. You actually DO it!
I love getting your notes. I'm always amazed when you remember my birthday or whatever event since I know you know about a million people. I love getting letters, so I'll write one. I was the most successful at writing my husband while he was in Iraq, one letter for every day he was gone, never missed a day! 342 letters. In a box in storage. Pretty cool.
I loved my Jesus Saves card. Perfect!!!
