Hello, my dear Postcrossing friend!
The postcards are so small, and the stamps are so big. There’s never enough space for all the words and impressions I want to share. So I decided to tell you the story of the day I mailed these postcards and share some photos you can view by scanning the QR code.
This post is about the following postcard IDs:
RU-10929112

RU-10929110

RU-10929107

RU-10929105

RU-10929104

RU-10929103

RU-10929102

RU-10929101

RU-10929100

RU-10929099

RU-10929098

RU-10929096

Taking on 12 addresses in October seemed like a good idea at the time. It wasn’t. As a result, I mailed these postcards 13 days later than I’d planned. All of them are at risk of being marked as expired. I hope they all reach their recipients, but just in case they don’t, I’m sharing the pictures here.

On October 16, I waited for my son to fall asleep. The postcards were all ready in advance. After two hours of writing them by hand, I went for a walk with Yarka. He’s only two and a half, but he was kind enough to accompany me to the post office.

And what a foggy day it was! We could barely see the end of the street.

It was just like the Soviet animated film Hedgehog in the Fog. So Yarka decided that I was the owl and he was the hedgehog.

We took the route I used to walk with him when he was just six months old. It’s an easy route to manage with a stroller.


Yarka wanted to mail the postcards himself. It wasn’t easy: the mailbox was too high for him, so I had to lift him up. But we did it!

On the way home, we stopped at every playground. We didn’t meet any other children, but we were happy together.

We even saw a cat catching a mouse.

And that was how we mailed the postcards together: a mother and her little boy.

Thank you for reading.

Happy Postcrossing!
