My husband left Tuesday morning to start a 6 month deployment in the Middle East. We're so thankful for technology to keep in touch: skype, facetime, email, instant messaging. We didn't have that when he went to Iraq. And I remember my great aunt (God Bless her soul) saying how her husband was gone for year during WWII and all they had was mail.
I still like "snail mail." And, snailing IT IS when you live overseas! Mail takes average 2 weeks for arrival. I do miss mailing things and having it only take 2-3 days.
I have always saved love notes from my sweet husband. Rather than purchasing store-bought stationary, I decided to use my crafting skills and make him cards. Don't worry, I don't expect him to mail back all the cards I made. I'm hoping they're generic enough to send to family and friends if he wants too. I had fun making these quick cards.
