I took a break for a few years, but I am glad to be back!
If you do not receive the swap that I sent you, PLEASE message me before giving me a low rating! I will try again!
I mark a swap "sent" when it is placed in the mailbox; the postmark date may be different because of this.
I am a daughter of the One True King. I am 28 years old; I teach 6th grade. I have a wonderful husband, a five-year-old daughter, expecting a baby girl in July, and 4 sweet cats. In my free time, I enjoy POSTCROSSING, pen-paling, baking, reading, fishing, and driving. I have lived in Missouri my whole life, but I enjoy traveling. I am anxiously awaiting the day I am able to travel abroad!
My favorite things are constantly changing! Here are some of my current interests:
-postcards (written on, not in envelope preferably)
-Willow Tree angels (I have Love of Learning, Wisdom, Simple Joys, Angel of Prayer, Brother and Sister, and Promise.)
-spring decor
-kids books
I love any postcard, but if you are looking for some inspiration, here are some of my favorites:

Hi Alyssa. I received my birthday package in Saturday's mail. I'm waiting to open it on July 14 and will rate you then. I'm really getting excited. Thank you. ~nancy
Thank you for the birthday card and the beautiful Hawaii PC's. I've always wanted to go, but have never gotten the opportunity. Maybe someday. Enjoy your summer! (June Swaps & Wishes)
You are very welcome for the owl stickers. Do you have enough things yet to set up your Owl classroom? I checked out the owl bulletin board banners and there are so many cute ones.
Thank you, for the cute owl picture saying thank you and for letting me know that you receive the items I sent. I'm so happy to know that you love the S&W gifts I gave you.
I taught 1st - 5th grade art one year at a private school, so the Arbor Day pencils were left over from a project we did. I'm sure you can find good use for the other things I sent, too. I also home schooled my son, so I may be able to find other supplies laying around. Most things are packed or I've given them away already.
May you have an awesome teaching experience!
~ Cari
You're very welcome!! Good to know you liked everything!! Have a great day! : )
