Talk about a happy face. :) Your mom sounds sweet. I've begun a match game with my youngest pen friend. We'll be matching upper and lower case alphabets. I'm sending him one a week for a year. Then he will have 52 cards, and hopefully he'll learn a whole lot.<br /><br />I like Christy's style. She's talented. Wonder if she's a tagger? ;)<br /><br />Lovely blog you have. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6646163930694541260.post-48327099711423487012012-02-13T23:32:21.157-05:002012-02-13T23:32:21.157-05:00That book market sounds really cool!

They're a type of bazaar selling cheap or secondhand items, according to Wikipedia) to look for postcards, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I'm not sure if they sell that type of thing there though.Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239819313953207129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6646163930694541260.post-39183603847726966502012-02-13T17:14:11.996-05:002012-02-13T17:14:11.996-05:00Olivia, in Barcelona (I live here) there is a terr...Olivia, in Barcelona (I live here) there is a terrific book market on Sundays where sometimes they sell special and old postcards. If I find some beautiful one, I'll send it you with my letter! ;)<br /> <br />Ps.: In some photography shop on-line you can do some postcards with the image that you want. Maybe there you can check what kind of paper are made of ;)Miss.
