My friend Ella let me know that many of you have sent Christmas cards to her sister, Edna. You'll remember that I posted Edna's photo back in March and asked that we help celebrate her birthday by sending her cards. Edna is severely disabled, and she loves receiving cards. Apparently, some of you have not forgotten about this sweet lady.
Ella asked that I post her thanks to all of you who have sent her sister Christmas cards. I thank you too. And if you haven't sent one yet, let's keep Edna's holiday happiness going. I'm going to get my card in the mail to her today. Maybe you could do the same, if you haven't already. If you are new to Blackberry Creek or you don't remember Edna's story, click on the link in the first paragraph.

Hi Susan -
Thank you for the info about Miss Edna. I'm with her, I love to receive cards, especially Christmas cards and it seems like something that's dying out now.
I remember as a young girl, running down our long driveway trying to beat my sister who's 2 yrs older than me to the mailbox to see who had sent us Christmas greetings.
Then, Mama would put up a string all around our living room walls and we would hang all of the cards up so we could enjoy looking at them all thru Christmas. What a beautiful sight it was, there must have been a hundred of them. I miss those days.
I'm going to send Miss Edna a card and wish her a Merry Christmas!
Blessings to you Susan, I hope you are feeling well today. :-)

I've addressed the envelope and will be adding the card shortly so as to get it in the mail to Ms. Edna today. Thanks Susan! Merry Christmas.

Thanks for posting Miss Edna's address again as I'd lost it. I have a card ready to mail to her tomorrow!
I remember when Memphis had two mail deliveries during December to deal with the volume of Christmas cards! It was sheer heaven to open cards twice a day. I still send cards, but fewer than I used to because postage is so high. I still love getting cards, too!
Hope you are feeling better and your back has decided to behave nicely and without complaint.
Hugs!
