[Thank You] for... holy cracker that's a lot of cards

This is my second thank you post! I wanted to wait until the end of May and do this monthly but it's just so many already, I'm afraid I will lose track. :D

u/NamasteCyclin Thank you for the beautiful card and for sharing your favorite books with me! I also LOVE historical fiction!

u/Ok_Reveal2698 (x3) Firstly, thank you for the Mothers Day card, it meant so much to me and it's so pretty! Secondly, thank you for the card for my son's kindergarten, you picked such a cute thing to share and they'll love seeing the gigantic bridge! Lastly, thank you for the book card, it was so cool to see that we have such similar tastes. I also absolutely adore LotR and reread it as much as possible! I can't believe you found all these stamps that match the book theme too, I absolutely adore them.

u/OnenutFellow Thank you for the gorgeous hand-painted card and for telling me everything about the special blue you used. I loved learning from you and your painting is so beautiful.

u/YukiNoAshiato Thank you for the card from Mexico, I dream of visiting one day. It was so cool to read more about the area. And the stamp is stunning?!

u/Over_Team_8834 Thank you for sharing your favorite music with me, I knew none of the songs and it was so special to sit down and listen to all of them! Thank you for showing me sth I would have never found otherwise.

u/yesimworkingnow Thank you for the super cool historical NYC card, which plays did you see in NYC, I have to know! :D

u/SignificantOkra5202 Thank you for the card for my sons kindergarten, I doubt that they've ever seen a moose, they'll be stunned! And you included so many cute snippets for the to explore, I appreciate it so much!

u/Tonglingfei Thank you for sending a card to my sons kindergarten, they'll love seeing all the places in Iceland and hearing about your job (PS: you're really cool!).

u/mel_et_favum Thank you for the (huge!) card you sent for my sons kindergarten, it's wild how much information you managed to convey in such limited space, yet keep it understandable for children. :D They'll love learning all the things!

u/Whiskers3000 Thank you for sending a card for my sons kindergarten, it shows so many different things and I'm excited to tell the kids about clam chowder and see their reactions. :D They'll laugh so much when I tell them about the molasses flood.

u/stampmemoirs Thank you for sending a card to my sons kindergarten all the way from Malaysia (I can't believe how quickly it arrived). It's so cool that you found a card ABOUT breakfast! I'll help the kids prepare the food at the kindergarten so they can all try it!

u/Ok_Theme7072 Thank you for sending a card for my sons kindergarten! They'll love it and I gotta say that I especially loved the stamps. :D

u/buuupppp Thank you so much for the card for my sons kindergarten. It's so cool because Prague is an attainable place for them to visit. :D The way you phrased the card is so adorable, I read it twice.

u/TheFeistyFox Thank you so much for the card telling my sons kindergarten about our neighbors! The stamps are adorable, they'll love them so much. I'm excited to see if anyone has been to Austria yet!

u/mypolkadotumbrella Thank you for the (massive?!) NVY card for my son's kindergarten. They'll spot so many things in the illustration and the stickers you used are so cute. Personally obsessed with the yellow school bus stamp.

u/medjuli (x2) Thank you for sending a card to my sons kindergarten and to me! I love them both and it's so sweet to see how different they are. I love Vienna, I only went once, ages ago, and dream of going back. One day I'll take my son. :)

[Request] Help my friend feel better on his birthday [Germany]

My friend Adrien is having a very rough time. I don’t want to go into personal detail because privacy but he’s not well. It’s his birthday soon and I want to bring him some joy. Would anyone like to send him a card?

He loves castles (to an incredible degree), he also likes Lego, Harry Potter, ancient Egypt, Disney, cats, video games (Minecraft and the sims), Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and traveling. He is such a pure soul and deserves the world.

(PSA: I’ll be collecting the cards on his behalf and present them to him after I collected them all.)

Next Sunday is Mother’s Day in Germany! I’ve been a single mom from day 1 and my son is 4, so, historically I have received nothing on that day. I thought maybe there’s some other single moms out here (or any other mom, or anyone, really) who’d like to trade cards for this very occasion? It would mean a lot to me.

I’d love to surprise my sons kindergarten with as many cards from as many places as possible for them to learn about the world. I’d collect the cards and prep a little presentation where we look at the cards and pin them on a world map.

Prompt would be tell them sth about where you’re from. What you eat for breakfast, what kids do in their free time, what animals live there etc. If you have kids they could help! I’ll send a thank you card to each and every one who participates. :)

There are roughly 15 kids in the kindergarten, it’s in Berlin, Germany and kids are 3-6 years old.

I am an avid reader and I have 4 international stamps left so let’s talk fave books! I’d love to receive 4 postcards from wherever with a list of your favorite books, just one book that really touched you, a favorite author or quote - anything book related. Of course I’ll send one back with my faves as well!
