You've Got Mail



One of the things I wish our family was better at is saying nice things to each other. We are always so quick to snap or criticize, but often the nice words take a little more effort. So, when I saw this post on a blog I follow, I decided to copy (I am VERY good at copying). I found these adorable mailboxes at the Target dollar spot (I am also VERY good at finding things there). I added some vinyl and cut out a bunch of blank hearts.



Now, we are writing love notes to each other. We had a lesson for FHE about love last night and the kids could hardly wait to write something for their siblings. We will read the notes out loud each night. I hope this will help us all to remember more nice things to say. Plus, these mailboxes just beg to be overflowed with candy and valentines on the 14th.
