Okay, I pretty much have everyone matched up with a penpal, girls with girls, boys with boys, within a year in age.

But here's the problem!

I need three more pen pals. I have a 10 year old boy, a 5 year old girl, and a 5 year old boy that need pen pals.

My kids don't mind a bit, doubling up but my dd is ten, and my ds is 7. That would work with the 5 year old boy possibly, but I'm sure the five year old little girl would want someone closer to her age then my ten year old. And I'm sure the ten year old boy doesn't want a girl for a penpal! LOL!

Mommyof5, is your six year old interested in pairing up with the five year old girl? Or does she for sure not want to do this?

MissBookworm, I have your 10 year old ds and 7 year old dd matched up, but I didn't have anyone near the age of your 15 year old, and I wasn't sure if he wanted to do it, because you haven't been able to ask him yet. So if he does, we'll get that figured out, too!

So, any volunteers for the three that I need?

My daughter isnt' with me during the summer (when school is out) I don't want to leave her in the house all day long. So I haven't had a chance to talk to her and see if she wants to do it. She is 10, I know that she likes to write, but at the same time I would not want this little girl to write her and she not take the time to write back, She isn't due home until a week before school starts so it will be another few weeks before I can ask her and I'm not sure that will work in with your time table.

ohhhhhhh LOL! I was just going to offer my daughter forgetting that I'd already put us on the list

I understand completely, Letishe!

LOL! Catherin! Yep, I have your two younger ones on the list, and matched up already!

If I don't get any responses for this, I'll get in touch with the moms of these kids, and see if anyone wants to double up...

If its not too late can I sign my 2 up. My ds will be 9 and my dd will be 5.

By Luvn29 on Thursday, July 27, 2006 - 03:25 pm:

That's perfect, Kristie! I need just those ages! LOL! I've added you to the list!

Now I need a match for the 5 year old boy. But if I don't find someone, I'll let my ds write him if that is okay with his mother... I'll check on that if I need to...

I would like to sign my DS up he is 8. Sorry things have been crazy at work. I was late is responding.

By Luvn29 on Thursday, July 27, 2006 - 04:09 pm:

No problem... I'll add him, too...

Any other takers? I need penpals for two boys, ages 8 and 5...

By Bellajoe on Thursday, July 27, 2006 - 04:32 pm:

My kids are interested, sorry i have not reponded before, i just was not sure if they would be interested.

My dd is 7 and my ds is 5 he would love to write to a 5 yr old boy and dd would love to write to any girl around her age.

By Luvn29 on Thursday, July 27, 2006 - 06:00 pm:

I've added you! Okay, guys! Now we need a pen pal for an 8 year old boy, and a 7 year old girl! They don't have to be exact ages, also we'll get any other kids that want to join signed up! It's not too late!

By Beth on Thursday, July 27, 2006 - 09:07 pm:

My dk's are soon to be 8 year old boy and 5 year old girl. We would like to do it Thanks

By Luvn29 on Thursday, July 27, 2006 - 10:03 pm:

Sounds great! I've added you...

Not sure if the seven and five year old girls will want to be pen pals, so are there any others that have girls close to one of those ages that want to participate?

I will start listing the match-ups tomorrow for the ones who have already signed up and been matched so you guys can get started!

I have a 5 yr. old DD and a 7 yr. old DD who would love to participate, so you can add them to the list-I think that might help .

By Luvn29 on Friday, July 28, 2006 - 12:48 pm:

That sounds wonderful! Thank you so much! Now all pen pals are matched up!
