June 12, 2013 Some of the best letters shared within a family never need any postage. These are the ones slipped into a lunch box or pasted onto a mirror or the dashboard of the car. A child’s drawing or a simple “I love you” are “worth their weight in the gold of family harmony.” […]
They bonded with a letter
May 26, 2013 In honor of Memorial Day, I want to share a story from NPR’s STORYCORPS about two Kentucky moms of fallen soldiers who connected through a letter. Both lost their sons during Desert Storm. Their sons didn’t know each other. Lue Hutchinson’s son, Tom Butts, was killed on the final day of the […]
Matthew’s “Right Writer”
MatthewMatthew’s ‘Right Writer’ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ While listening to NPR on my morning commute, I heard about Warren Buffet’s contest for kids: Grow Your Own Business…and his Secret Millionaires’ Club.

Yes, I downloaded the e-book version and wandered briefly, into the 1850’s with the story, but call me “old-fashioned,” I like a book as a companion I can carry with […]

May 9, 2018 Whether it’s been a while or just recently, now’s the time to think about sending Mom a card or note. Mother’s Day is May 13th. Sure, you can send flowers and take her out to dinner, but a card with a few personal lines written by you will be a keepsake. Look […]
Earth Day Thoughts to Consider
April 22, 2013 For a long time, I have been looking for a way to dispel the fallacy called: “Going Green.” I see the phrase on my bills in the mail. “Save a Tree” the envelope urges- pay your bills electronically. Then I stumbled across a page in a recent catalog from Saturn Press. Their explanation sums […]
