It all started with one little letter in the mail asking for a second date. He now includes a daily poem to the girls. He still writes me a letter every single morning (even when he was overseas on deployment on an aircraft carrier). 3 beautiful daughters and almost 18 years later, he is still my guy. I married that guy 7 months after we met. I’d have to say it was a handwritten letter from a guy I had one date with asking me for a second one. I’m not in it for the magazine (although I’d love it) you just got me thinking…what IS my favorite piece of mail? I don’t expect a comment in return…plus you are headed to Africa! I love your voice, as a wife, a mom and a perfectly imperfect woman. It inspired me to actually start my own blog. Oh, I saw polka dots and prayed for you yesterday! ? I had been feeling so homesick, and this thoughtful package was such a sweet, sweet thing – a little hug from a friend back home. The address book, intended to house the many phone numbers of Spanish boys I was no doubt meeting, is one that I still use today – over 10 years later. A stationary set, an address book, a flashlight, tons of small, little presents – each with a little note as to why they were important things for me to have. No matter, I claimed my package and opened it right there on the sidewalk in front of the worn-down building, and found the most amazing assortment of little treasures from my best friend back home. The local post office (a total misnomer) was a hefty taxicab ride away and in a less-than-desirable part of town. One afternoon I received a note in my box that I had a package and would need to claim it at the local post office. My most favorite thing in the mail was sent to me when I was studying abroad in Madrid. How I love your blog ? You brighten my days & I just love being welcomed into your home. Leave a comment telling me the best thing you ever got in the mail.Ĭhristine -Oh, Meg.

Julie told me about these shoes …i picked them up that day.
