I'd like to direct your attention to the 2011 Letters blog. This blog, just discovered by myself tonight, is the project of homeschool mom, Renee who invites people from around the world to write her family letters. In her own words,
"We are a homeschool family trying to collect 2,011 letters from around the world by Dec. 31.We are using this to help us learn about others both far and near. I want to open the world to my daughters and show them that there is more to the world than what we see. I want them to learn about other cultures,other traditions,other languages,etc.I want them to learn what a textbook cannot teach them about humanity." If you'd like to help with their project you can visit their blog at http://2011letters.blogspot.com/.

Yes - I did this a little earlier in the year. I can't remember what number letter I was but it was like 177 or something I think. If you look back far enough you will find me.

I found you! You're #171. As I would have expected, you sent quite a stash of goodies. I'm sure the kids of the home were delighted! Thanks for pointing that out, Kathleen, I wouldn't have known otherwise. I hope my last letter has reached you by now :o)
