This week I was struck by how important it is to be kind to others. I like to think I am a kind person and try hard to make life better for those I am in contact with. When a few people took a few moments to say something kind or encouraging to me this week it meant a lot to me. It actually was what kept me going through my days and helped me not get in my car, drive home, and go to bed for the rest of the week.

So cute, but I know she is ready for the cone of shame to be no more.[/caption]Because we can all use some kindness and some happy thoughts on a regular basis, and because Penny is bored at home all day (she could never be a stay at home mom by the way) we want to do some thing kind of kooky and spread some joy to you.
We want to send you a postcard. I will not tell you what the postcard will say or whose picture will be on it. All I will tell yo is that we think it is fun to get real mail and we want to brighten up some days. I have also found that when I am not my best doing things for others helps me feel good too.
If you do not want to participate in this totally weird blogging experiment don't. If you are up for it here is what we want you to do.
- Send an email to us with your address (use a PO Box if you want, I genuinely have no time or money to travel to find out where you really live).
- Email at ericajacquline@gmail.com by Sunday night.
- Wait a week to receive your real mail (it will be our weekend project over here).
- When you receive your mail take a picture of it for instagram, twitter, or your blog #PennyThePuppyLovesMe Just kidding that is a weird hashtag. Actually I can not think of another one so just use that.
- You can even link up your treats in a post on Monday March 17th.
- Think of something you can do to be kind to others to help spread some love around, I am sure lots of people need a little extra love all the time.
Please email me your address! I promise Penny's poop will in no way be apart of your real mail. Lets see what we can do to show some love!
