Johan is a friend of mine from High School that was a foreign exchange student from Norway and he contacted me recently about his daughter, Anna. He told me that she's also 8 and wants to practice writing her English and asked if Fynlie would like to be her pen pal. I talked to Fynlie and she was very excited to say yes!!
As soon as Fyn received the first letter, she couldn't wait to write her response, so she started immediately...
all the markers!
We learned in Anna's first letter that her birthday was coming up so we mailed her a birthday card as well! Johan told me that she received it on her birthday, which was awesome since it takes 10-17 days to arrive after mailing.
Fynlie and I have already started daydreaming about us going to Norway someday to meet her!
