THE MLP-MOTHER'S DAY EDITION?

CLICK HERE TO READ ABOUT THE GENESIS OF THE MOTHER LETTER PROJECT. Instead of purchasing Christmas this year, our family created it and donated the "difference" to a small African village. I collected a series of open letters-the Mother Letters-for my wife's Christmas present. You may still submit a letter via email HERE, or COMMENT HERE. Please refer to the FAQs in the side bar for more details.

THE MOTHER'S DAY EDITION

Did you think we were finished with the Mother Letter Project? Well, so did I.

Since the completion of the Project, many have written me requesting copies of the letters. The requests seem to be centered around generating a copy to give to their dearest mums for Mother's Day.  It is a difficult thing to say "I'm sorry." It is difficult to tell another mother, who might need her own set electronic encouragement, "no."  And the truth is, I don't want to say no. 

So, this week, Penny put me over the edge.  Penny was the request that begged the question, "should we do Round II?" A question that needs your help answering.

Amber and I have decided to give you another run at it.  Were you a late comer to the party?  Did you forget to bring your present and wrap it with a bow? Well, the party just moved into the wee hours of the morning, and Wal-Mart's still open. 

We are taking submissions again. If you submit your Mother Letter before Mother's Day, we'll compile the MLP Mother's Day Edition and distribute it. Will you get the original set of letters? Here is where I say, "I'm sorry, no." But you will get the Mother's Day Edition, which is sure to be chock-full of good submissions (I know someone named Jana who needs to write one).

I know that many of you who already submitted are asking, "will I receive a copy of the Mother's Day Edition?" Yes, and no. We are currently trying to locate a relief organization in Africa that deals with women's/mother's issues (suggestions in the comments). If you pledge to give $0.10 (10 cents!) per letter generated from the Mother's Day Edition to that charity, you'll get a copy of the Mother's Day Edition.

As always, you may email the project HERE, or COMMENT HERE.
