When I asked for volunteers to send birthday cards to my Aunt Vernie I really didn't expect to hear anything about her reaction to receiving a lot of mail. But yesterday I discovered a little tidbit in an Amish newspaper where it said that Vernie Mast is thrilled to be getting a lot of mail due to the kindness of friends of her niece (my name)
They didn't mention how many cards she received, but I was happy to hear how thrilled she was. So thanks again to everyone who helped fill her mailbox!
That is so neat that they published how excited she was in the Amish newspaper!
ReplyDeletei don't have a great memory for my own families birthday so if you will remind us again next year i will send another one. thanks, oh and if i give you a list of my families birthdays will you also remind me of them? thanks
ReplyDeleteThat's so nice to hear! Thank you for sharing it. I didn't even think of checking that letter in the paper to see if there would be a mention, but it's nice to know there was, and even nicer to know that your aunt was thrilled.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting to hear that they printed it in the paper!! I wonder how many she received? What fun that was!! Thanks for letting us be part of such a special day!

Sweet! I was just wondering about that this morning! Isn't it funny that you would do a post about it today. I'm so glad she was thrilled to receive all of those cards.

That really was fun - and a great idea by you!! Next year, tell them when my birthday is and tell them all to put check for $100 in there - now THAT would be fun! HA HA You're a great niece to make her birthday so special ~ ♥
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear she enjoyed the cards. She probably also enjoyed having her name mentioned in the community newspaper!
ReplyDeleteWas it in Die Botschaft or The Budget?
ReplyDeleteIt would be great to see that article on your post. How fun and homespun. :)
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! I'm so glad it made her day special. :)
