Kayce, Chloe would not have minded one single bit to have a boy pen pal. She used to be the sweetest little princess and always wore dresses and all the girly stuff. But now she is so tomboy and has more guy friends. But I know how it is and it's better this way. Thank you for letting them join. They have enjoyed reading Kansas' letters from her pen pal.

I hope ya'll have a wonderful revival. We all need thet!

Hi there Kayce!
I just wanted to write in and say that my daughters are so happy with their penpals. They race to the mail everyday!! I know that the guidelines stipulate that each participant can have only one pen pal but if that ever changes, they would love to sign up for one more. They are both homeschooled and so have some extra time to manage a second penpal. Let me know if the guideline ever changes! P.S. My oldest daughter will be eight next month and my youngest is 6 1/2.

I also have to say how much my boys are enjoying their penpals. I have never seen them actually WANT to write anything, but now its easy to work on writing. Its so cute to see them excited for mail call everyday to see if they have something from their penpal. Oh yes - and the "Can we go visit our penpals? Like tomorrow?" even though they are many states away? :) You gotta love it!!

Hello everyone! I am so glad to hear about excited penpals. Revival was awesome and busy and my wedding is now only 7 days away

I know, my son also wants to visit his penpal. It is too cute.

Please keep spreading the word. I know this thread is slow. Dont really know why. I thought Farmkids would really be interested. Hmmm.

My 3 yo would love to send/receive postcards....of course, I'd do the writing, but he'd pick out the postcard and tell the story.

Kristina, Jennifer and Karen, I am so sorry my grands are such slackers. My daughter has moved so I am not going to see them as much as before. They will be here today so I will make them all sit down and write letters. Please tell the girls I am so sorry they're so slow.

I was actually wondering if there was a stop to the penpalling for our kids as my kids haven't heard anything in a few months from their pals. They each told me that it wasn't their turn to write, well, hmm, that could be true but you know how boys are! LOL I'll see if I can find the addresses of the boys they write to and get them to write anyway even if they don't think it's their turn.
