“Letters from Mom”

Mom wrote me hundreds of letters and would often send me greeting cards with snipped comics or articles from newspapers or magazines she thought I'd enjoy.

Here’s a short note mom sent me one Easter. It was inside a hand-crafted red greeting card with a swatch of blue felt on the front and a cut-out of a hand making “I love you” in sign language, which was something mom, my sister, and I all started doing at some point in the 90s.

I guess she sent this shortly after she learned how to play Scrabble against me online via a Yahoo! web app.

David,

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to wish you a happy Easter and to tell you how very much I love you.

Please give T      my best, and when she gets here, I hope to see her, so let her know.

Love you lots,
Mom

P.S. I love IM and Scrabbling with you!
