When I started The Penpal Project back in March, I had absolutely no idea how it would be received. In my heart, I hoped it would possibly reach a handful of women…but wow! I have been humbled and awed by the response. Since March 1 when the post went live, I have carefully and prayerfully created over two dozen packages for Mammas around the country. Almost four months later and I am reaching the last handful of women on the list. Colleen, Heather, Ashley, Dixie, Robin and Janet: you haven’t been forgotten! You’ll have surprises headed your way soon 🙂
The Penpal Project and its response has solidified my thinking that we Mammas are seeking the same things: friendship and support. In a world where we feel undervalued and often alone, an act as simple as a package in the mail can make all the difference in a woman’s life. And how beautiful and easy is that!
So that leads me to the next question: What’s next? I have many ideas swirling in my head, but I’d love to hear your thoughts on how this outreach can grow. Please, please share in the comments!
Finally, to my Penpal Project mammas: Thank you for allowing me to bring a little joy to your day.
