Lately I've been thinking about how sad it is that letters are no longer popular. Mailmen are going out of business, and the only mail you receive is bills and sometimes packages that you ordered from Amazon. Well, there's nothing I like more than a good, heartfelt, handwritten letter, or a sweet little note to brighten someone's day. I've made it my goal this year to write more letters and notes, and I've even started writing letters to children in poverty through Compassion. I have a girl from Bolivia, a boy from India, a girl from Peru, and I just requested a boy from Mexico. (Since I'm going to Mexico soon!) I haven't received their letters yet, but I'm excited to! I hope letters will never ever go out of business, and my handsome future boyfriend will write me dear little letters and notes someday:)! I also have been obsessed with photography my whole life -- but more recently I've been starting to try to get good! Ever since I was little I would see my dad take lots and lots and lots of pictures, capturing memories in mid air. I was so excited to receive my first camera for Christmas one year, a little flimsy pink one. Later I got a better pink one, and then even later I got a gray Kodak easy share one. I took tons of picture, especially on our big trip out west and to Mexico! But it didn't stop there. My dad eventually got a canon rebel t4i. It was so amazing, and I finally learned how to take a picture on it. Then I wanted to know more. I played around with the settings and kind of taught myself = but I didn't know everything. And so I decided to get better and take an online digital photography class! Now I want to get my own camera and supplies, and get, even, better! Update: I have four kids now. My boy from Mexico is named Brian, and he's eight. I love this.
