CLICK HERE TO READ ABOUT THE GENESIS OF THE MOTHER LETTER PROJECT.
By now you know the story. Instead of purchasing Christmas this year, our family is “creating” Christmas and donating the “difference” to a small African village. To that end, I am collecting a series of open letters-the Mother Letters-for my wife’s Christmas present. How do I leave a letter, you inquire? Email HERE, or comment HERE. Please refer to the FAQs in the side bar for answers to more of your questions. They explain the project in greater detail.
A CHRISTMAS PRESENT?
The project has hit 500! “Too late to submit,” you ask? The answer is, simply, “no.” KEEP ‘EM COMING! There is always room for one more at the stable.
A couple of “heads up” items. On Christmas Eve (around noon), Shannon at Rocks in My Dryer will have a special story on the MLP. I won’t divulge too many details, but she will have a major scoop! Please take a break from the Christmas preparations to visit her site for some real insider information.
In addition, take a bit of time out of your Christmas Day to visit the Mother Letter Project. I’ll be posting a little something for those of you who have found your way to this corner of the Internet. A “thank you” of sorts. And, I will reveal my true identity and leave you instructions for donating to that little African village (if interested).
Thank you so much. You have blessed me more than you will ever know. I am sure my wife will say the same on Christmas day.
Merry Christmas!

working on my letter tonight!!!
Already sent my letter, but passing on the word once more!
More than happy to join in on this!
I did a post a few days ago about the Mother Letter Project, and then today I posted about a favorite charity of mine and linked to the Mother Letter Project. I hope that’s what I was supposed to do
I think I understand it, but sometimes I’m easily confused…
Either way, I linked back here so I’ll consider myself a part of the Big Push!
Thank you!
LOVE this - you’re a gem, you know! Your wife is blessed to have you by her side.
I’ll email mine later today/tonight.
Sent my letter this morning. I pushed it again today on my blog plus my friends WILL be getting a mass email regarding this blessing in disguise. For what was one of the hardest things to write because of all the thoughts that came racing to mind, was SUCH an incredible blessing!!!
Thank you for this project. I kept being led back to it again and again. Writing this letter was very hard for me but I am glad I did.
I hope your wife loves her present.
Finally got it posted on my blog, facebook & twitter!
