First off, these are but a few of the cards I received this past week. I am overwhelmed by the amount of birthday wishes pouring in and though it's been hard to refrain, I am not going to open most of them until my birthday on the 21st! And when I do, you best believe there will be plenty of thanks bursting forth!!

u/Aromatic_Hornet215 - I adored reading about your life and job, it sounds like you're living a dream! I've listened to nearly all of the songs on the list you sent and I must say - what a wonderful taste in music you have! I am so happy that we can build a friendship through cards. (Fun fact - my bff of 8 years lives in your city!)

u/Chris_740 - I love your favorite time of day. There is nothing like the comfort of being home after working a long day! A philosophy I try to live by is "Spread love and do no harm". There's too much hatred in this world, so my goal is to share as much light and positivity as I can. 💛 Thank you for the delightful postcard!

u/doggotoast - Your use of stickers brought such a smile to my face. I ADORE stickers and finding ways to incorporate them in every card I make, and the ones you used were just too darn cute! Yellow is my favorite color, so I greatly appreciate the postcard!

u/citytiger - Thank you for the birthday wishes! I love the sepia tone on the postcard, it's so cool! I love historical cards!

u/littlemermaidxx - The Japanese Chin and the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dressed in adorable winter clothes melted my heart! I cover my own two pups with sweaters and little booties during the cold of winter. Dressed up dogs are the cutest. Thank you for postcard and the birthday wishes!

u/410bore - I need to address how BEAUTIFUL your handwriting is! So uniform and clear, I don't think I've ever seen better writing before. It makes me want to Improve my own! What a coincidence you've been to my little town! We do have quite a collection of fantastic historical museums and lots of hands-on learning experiences. I'm so glad you've had the chance to visit! Thank you ever so much for the NASA collection card!

u/eccentric_bee - Such a stylish kitty!! She's definitely going places and making a name for herself! I think Maria is a fitting name for her. I just adore this card and the poem on the back! Thank you so much!!

I love you all💛
