I used to be good at writing people. Then, I started grad school and all
the people in my life stopped getting letters reminding them that I
loved them. It's probably better anyway since my husband will routinely
call from the grocery store to remind me that my handwriting is
illegible.
Because I knew my handwriting prohibited
letter-reading, and because I am a masochist, I would draw pictures to keep my
letters company. Today, I found a copy of two such cards. They make me
happy twice over. Once, because I'm reminded of the time I spent with
each letter. Twice, because I take some small delight in knowing that
while the picture on the front was pretty and was painstaking in its
creation, reading my letter inside was probably just as long and painful
for the recipients (is that bad?).
By the way, Rachel (the RM to my KM) has handwriting that looks like cool hieroglyphs.
I like drawing other things, too.
RM sent me this song this morning with a note: "I’ve had this on repeat: It consists of one word - Hallelujah - and it’s enough."

Ha! I'll never forget David exclaiming in the middle of GC, "Oh my gosh, your handwriting is terrible!"
ReplyDeleteAt least you think it could be cool hieroglyphs!
Love your "Twice over..." Oh yeah, and the illustrations, too. They're pretty good. ;)
