One of the great parts of sending a care package is the message enclosed. Reading the messages you guys send is one of my favorite parts of this job. Some funny, some heartfelt, and some sure to cause your child embarrassment. They fall into a few categories…

Short and Sweet: I love you, Love Mom and Dad, Enjoy, etc.

Funny: Enjoy stuffing your face, don’t forget to brush your teeth.

Emotional: I can’t even think of an exact quote here…They tend to be very lengthy…I’m missing you every hour of the day. Please know that we love you more than anything, enjoy this magical time of the turning of the leaves and changing of the winds. I’m not kidding here.

Whatever kind of message writer you are, keep doing what you do. Your kid will love hearing from you.

Starting in October, this blog will feature our favorite message of the month-not to poke fun (well maybe a little) but mostly to display the love you can send through a care package and a little note.

PS-don’t forget to include the message when you order because it is the only thing in the box that says who it is from. There is no order information, packing list, or receipt in the box!
