		<description>I will try and send a few cards to this great and worthy cause!  Our oldest son was in Iraq twice with the Marine Corps and cards and encouragement that people sent to our family while he was deployed was SO appreciated!  I still have some of the cards and they mean as much to me now and they did a few years ago when they were sent!

Thanks Melanie for offering us the opportunity to participate in this as part of our Christmas this year!

God bless!

		<description>As an army wife who spent last Christmas alone, I am moved to tears.

This could bring such meaning to a family who is missing their loved one.

I am going to link this post on my blog.</description>
