Cards for Heroes Blog Hop

I'm so excited to be a part of a worthy cause. I just heard about a great organization, Cards for Heroes, that sends blank cards to soldiers that they can then send back to their friends and families. I'm so honored to be doing this for the men and women who sacrifice so much for our freedom, which we often take for granted.

I wasn't able to sign up in time, so I'm not technically part of the hop. If you want to participate in the hop and win prizes along the way, you need to start by clicking on the image below.

As missionaries, we are often told how much we sacrifice. Though there is some element to that in many missionaries' lives, I don't think we live sacrificially as much as the brave soldiers and their families who give up so much for people who don't always appreciate them. They are truly my heroes. I am so glad that I can be of service to them in some little way by sending them these cards. Thanks, Cards for Heroes, for giving us the opportunity to give back to our brave soldiers.


The birds were digitally drawn by me and printed on the computer. The sentiments are from Stampin' Up and There She Goes.

Have a great day!
