So many of us are having fun writing letters back and forth. I'm sure many of our kiddos would like to join. Sooooooo if you have any children that would like to write back and forth to other children of Farmgirl sisters, please e-mail me their information and I'll set it up the same as the adult one :) You can post about your children on here if you'd like, or just e-mail me a little about them, so I can put it as their "summary" when I email out the list :)

Bumping this to see if we get any other interest.
Margo - I sent you an e-mail.
Kelly - I think our daughters are penpals!?!? If so, she is writing again right now :) With me having my surgery, life went a little chaotic!!!

Katie (11 yo dd) - Interested in horses, herbs, cooking, crafting, reading, and helping with her baby sister
Lee (almost 9 yo ds) - Interested in police, legos, snakes, reading about history, and working with tools
Will (7 yo ds) - Interested in firemen and paramedics, legos, birds, crafting, cooking, and doing "homesteading" type things (gardening, chickens, building with tools)
Sam (almost 6 yo dd) - Interested in cooking, cats, baby dolls, crafting, and playing kitchen
Ben (3 yo ds) - Interested in coloring (I will write for him to go along with his pictures for now), dogs, playing with trains, and getting into things, lol.

Kris and Joyce - If you guys would send me your addresses, I'll start putting together a list. I'll then send it out to everyone and the kids can decide who they want to write - they can write just one person or everyone. It is totally up to them!!!
Kelli - I have your girls' names and addresses :) Can you post a little about each of the girls on here to share with everyone else?

Well I emailed you Shannon but here is a little more about each child.
Sydney, 9, interested in crafts, science, art, Nancy Drew and legos
Sofia 5, interested in dolls, dress up, and princesses
I also have David who is three who might be able to dictate a little to me or color a pic but that's about it :).
As with the other swaps remember that anything bigger than a flat card would need a customs form but the cost is the same (standard letter gets a standard stamp) to ship to us!

Shannon - I sent you my address! Also, do they just write to whomever they want? Or is it one consistent partner? Also, will you be able to post the children's interests by their addresses - or will we need to look it up on here?

They can write whomever they want, and yes, their interests will be under their address, as well s their age. I am planning to send out the list on Saturday, giving anyone else time to join, before I send it out :)

I am so sorry! We have been fighting the flu. I know that is no excuse, but having 6 kids, 11 and under, running 103-105 temps while you are as well, has left me exhausted and way behind! Working on it now!!!

No worries Shannon! Please, don't rush :) We are just fine with waiting - I just didn't want to miss out on the email in case it was sent :)

Hope you guys are on the mend, Shannon!! I haven't seen the list in my email yet. Was it sent out to everyone who had responded on this thread? It may just be hung up in email limbo, but I wanted to let you know in case there was a problem. Like Joyce said above, there's no rush... Whenever you are up to taking a peek. :) Take care!!

Hmmmm you should have gotten it Kris :/ I'm about to send an updated list (I spelled Joyce's daughter's name wrong, as it should have been a lower case "a" and we are adding her son), so hopefully it comes through!!!
Also, I was asked about Sabrina's address about her living in Germany. Please do NOT write "Germany" under her address! She is living in military housing, and adding Germany to the address would only confuse people :)
