  • Thanks for posting this. on 01 Nov 2007 at 1: 18 pm theamcginnis your point about letter writing is so important. my son is in iraq and, of course, email is great for keeping in close daily contact (when possible). but i make an effort to write one very long letter each week to him and include it in a package. so when it arrives he will have much to read and enjoy at his leisure (if he has any!!) on another point, i am also an inverterate letter keeper – something my friends and family members find so helpful – and extremely humorous.
