Description:

My aunt, Anna Belle, has been in a retirement home for 5 years now. She had a knee replacement a year ago, a pacemaker placed two years ago, and on top of all that, she has recently suffered a fall and is healing from that. Her husband died a few years ago and her family is away, so she gets very lonely and depressed this time of year.
In order to provide some cheer for her, I thought it would be nice to send her some Christmas cards or Chanukah cards. She is Christian, but her husband was Jewish, so either would be loved. If you could enclose something small like a recipe(she loves reading them), a mini ornament, a hand cut snowflake, a poem, a quote, a tea bag or something inexpensive that would be wonderful, but don't think that you are required to do that because a card is great in itself :-) Please send them to my address and I will hand deliver them, as she can't walk to her mailbox in the facility right now. She lives an hour away, so my mother and I will bring her some Christmas cheer with your cards and some homemade cookies and a meal.
Of course, you will receive a partner because this is also a swap, so please send your partner a nice quality sturdy folded Christmas or Happy Holiday card. Please write two sentences inside the card to wish them a great holiday season. Here is my address:

Anna Rosen c/o Laura McLimans 2400 Vajobi Ct Fort Collins, CO. 80526

I'm already in many xmas card swaps so I'm not sure if I'll join yet, however-I will go ahead and send something to Anna. This is a sweet idea! รขโ„ขยฅdebbie

I wont join cause really I dont need another card, but I love to spread the cheer. I am hosting a similar swap for my parents, theirs is called prayers for Christmas because they want people to pray for them. Having said all that I just know how much a card means to people like my parents and Anna of this swap. So I will send you a card Laura for Anna.
