I took my daughter, Marissa up to the newspaper office yesterday because they wanted to do an interview on her! The interview was about her writing back and forth to a American soldier in Iraq. It started back in December 2006 when Marissa and I made over 60 Christmas cards to be sent over to the soldiers in Iraq. We put our return addresses on them. I heard back from two once but not since. Marissa has been writing back and forth with this soldier that got one of her cards. He sent her a package a couple of weeks ago with all the goodies she's holding plus the t-shirt she's wearing. She thinks it's so cool! We have a goodie package all ready to be mailed out to him as soon as she finishes her letter. Oh and Erik is going to start writing to him too.

now she is adorable, what a great thing to get her started at doing.
She will be a special gift to many soldiers who never get mail.
