| I am also looking for a pen pal. I am from the Midwest USA. : ) Now...let me warn you, I am on a computer for a living all day so my handwriting is something to be desired sometimes. Sadly, I really do not have to write much anymore. It is really becoming a lost thing which is not good. My son's third grade teacher said that they are considering not teaching cursive anymore and just moving them over to the keyboard (she does not agree with this and GASP..neither do I). Anyone interested in being my pen pal? |

April the schools in our area have already stopped teaching cursive, it's a travesty, not happy with that at all. I will be personally teaching my grandson, it's a sad thing to lose and you're right...becoming a lost art like so many other things.

That is awful. I do not blame you. If they would stop teaching it here, I would be teaching my son myself as well.  |

I had a pen pal as a young girl and think it sounds fun to actually write letters again. I love cute cards and stationery, etc. Would anyone like to be my pen pal? I live in Kansas. I have two adult children and 5 grandchildren. I am married and work fulltime. I love my flower garden in the spring and summer. I like to read and clean house :) and I think this all sounds like a very fun idea!!
