Writing letters to soldiers.... my passion!

[pkendall]

Ever since the war started, the kids and I have wanted to do something special for our troops. We have joined several different organizations to help write letters, send cards and packages to troops that have been deployed. I have been doing alot with 2 groups. Adopt a platoon and Soldier Angels. Last night, Shelli with Soldier Angels emailed out that she needed help with a group. Of course, I emailed back right away that I could help out. I am now the proud leader of my own group of women who take care of a group of deployed women! I'm so excited! Soldier Angels has a branch called Ladies of Liberty. It is just for the support of deployed women. This group has a special place in my heart. I don't know what I would do if I was still on active duty and was deployed away from my children. With this group, you are given a list of the deployed women and just do what you can during the month whether it is send a card, write a letter or two or send packages. They all greatly appreciate it so much! I am so thrilled to be the leader of team #4 for them! I'm hoping to use my skills to do some fundraising and such to really help them out..... =)

If you have ever thought of writing to the troops, check them out!

With having friends, family and my other half in the military and all of them deploying, I know that they greatly appreciate everything you do for them letter and everything. Every little bit of encouragement and that feeling of being appreciated and taking a few minutes to read a letter from the heart of somebody else, takes their mind off of the long hard rough day they were having or a tough morning. Go Paula for your Troop Support :)
