Our Journey and What's New

Hi friends,

It’s been a challenging season for me—one that’s pushed me in ways I never expected. Lately, I’ve found myself doing things I never thought I would, simply trying to keep my head above water. And yet, at the very same time, I felt a quiet pull to start something new… something that didn’t quite make sense.

I love teaching. I truly do. After 20 years as an educator, I still feel deeply connected to the youth I work with, and I plan to continue that work. But this idea kept tugging at me.

It started with a simple question: What brings me joy? What feels meaningful?

During the 2025 holiday season, in the middle of the usual busyness, I had a moment while preparing my Christmas cards. I paused, a little overwhelmed—not by stress, but by gratitude. I realized just how many people I loved, and how many people had shown love to me in return.

Around that same time, I noticed more businesses sending physical mail—real, tangible pieces arriving in a world dominated by screens. It made me nostalgic for something we’ve slowly lost: the beauty of staying connected through handwritten notes and meaningful mail. There’s something about receiving a letter that feels different… more personal, more lasting, more special.

That’s when the idea began to take shape.

What if I sent the people I love a letter each month—filled with my favorite things? As an English teacher, I’ve always loved reading and writing. And as a mom, some of my happiest moments are the simplest ones—laughing with my kids, those deep, can’t-catch-your-breath belly laughs that happen in the middle of play.

Then, one day, while standing in line at Disneyland, I shared this idea with a friend. I told her how much I would love to send letters like that every month. She smiled and said, “I would love that—but who has the time? Honestly, I’d pay someone to do that for the people I love.”

That was the moment everything clicked.

What if I could create something that shared joy, connection, and meaning—not just with the people in my life, but with anyone who needed it?

And just like that, Sending Love was born.

(There were plenty of other moments along the way—but we’ll save those stories for another time.)

All my love, always,
Marjie

 

A Journey of Sending Love

 

 

Hi Friends

 

It has been a challenging time for me. And I am doing things right now that I never thought I would do.

 

I have been spending a lot of time just keeping my head a float. Simultaneously, I have felt an itch to start a business which makes no sense to me. I LOVE teaching the youth of America and I plan to keep teaching.

 

I thought I was just being a little crazy until a series of events happened. One of those events was thinking about what I could do in my life that brought me joy and felt important to me.

 

Christmas season of 2025 was busy as so many of them are but I had this moment where I was getting my cards all put together and I was a bit overwhelmed by how many people there were in my life and how much I loved people and they loved me.

 

Next, I came across all these businesses that were mailing things to people and I began to be nostalgic for the US postal system and I thought there was a time and place where people kept in touch via the mail. Getting something in the mail today with so much tech somehow feels so special.

 

Then I started to think what if I sent everyone I loved a letter every month full of my favorite things. Because we all know as an English teacher I love reading and writing. Additionally the times I feel most alive are when I am playing with my kids and we are all giggling. You know those deep belly giggles that you find in the mist of play.

 

As fate would have it I was standing in line at Disneyland chatting with a friend about how I would like to mail everyone I love a letter each month. My friend said, “I would love that but who has the time? I mean I would love to pay someone to mail fun stuff to people I love.” That was the moment, when I thought I could create a business where I share all that I love not only with other people I know but pretty much for anyone. Sending Love was born, there were other plot points along the way but we will save those for another day.

 

All my love Always

Marjie
