I wonder what the next 101 years will bring? I agree with you that this form of cursive writing is definitely an art form. Unfortunately, one that will cease to exist in the not too distant future.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15075862463694009635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7037628175146877784.post-43374414266518241962015-03-25T06:15:49.624-07:002015-03-25T06:15:49.624-07:00I LOVE those letters.

If the computers all get wiped out, none of us would have any memories! We should all bring back letter-writing.
