Postcards for Angel
Crossposted on Pinay NewYorker and Pinay Francophile
Before Angel was born in May 2008, Alan would send me postcards whenever he went on a business trip, and then we would send postcards home when we were together as part of a special way of chronicling our journeys so to speak. When Angel arrived, we started sending the postcards to him. It was because we missed him dearly when he wasn’t with us, and when he was with us, the trip took on a deeper meaning.
We want him to be inspired by the places we visited while at the same time providing him a journal of how much his Papa and Mama loved him. During this special trip to Paris end-November, I sent him a postcard from every place of note we visited, and I sent home a total of 14 postcards.
Rest your mouse on the thumbnail and you will be able to read the title on each postcard. Click on the thumbnail and you will be taken to my PinayFrancophile Friendster account where you will see a bigger version of the thumbnail and a text of the dedication.
These are photos of the actual postcards and not scans. If the frame seems skewed, it’s because it is.
