Today, Sunday September 7, 2008 is Grandparents Day.

Whether you are blessed to have two Grandparents or blessed to have just one… DO NOT let this day pass without acknowledging those special people known to you as either Bubbe and Zayde or Grandmother and Grandfather.  (Whether you see them regularly or not, JUST KNOW… hearing from you TODAY would bring the greatest joy! Especially if they are not even aware that today is Grandparents Day!)

I have never had children of my own, but as a friend I observe what my friend goes through not seeing or hearing from her beloved Grandchildren. 

It is harder now for her as her son passed away suddenly almost a year ago — at 43.  For a brief moment (a few weeks) my friend was reunited with her Beloved Grandchildren as they mourned together.  But after the initial period of mourning was over, things went back to the way they were — silence from the Grandchildren.  They are not bad Grandchildren, life happens and they are just busy with their own lives.  As we all know much too clearly — sometimes painfully… life takes its peculiar twists and turns and people are not here forever.

WHY DO I CARE? 

My passion and mission in life has become to “provide an easy way for YOU to communicate with those you love, care for,  just meet or know forever!  Say It With eCards is “your personal” 24/7 greeting card service — use it anytime, from anywhere!

I was not lucky enough to know my Grandparents, so perhaps through my eCards I can get to know yours! (not personally, but my eCards can bring them joy)

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Always taking into account life’s twists and turns…  I designed in a variety of categories:  For both Grandparents;  For just Bubbe or Grandmother;  For just Zayde or Grandfather.  Each of these categories has been broken down further – Judaic and Non-Judaic eCards.  This is done as a courtesy to the Say It With eCards membership so they may have Grandparents Day eCards for their Non-Jewish recipients.

Wishing You & Your Grandparents, Friends and Family Warm Regards,

September 7, 2008 is Grandparents Day. 

I never really knew my grandparents — two had passed on before I was born.  I had a grandfather on my mother’s side who I vaguely remember and a grandmother on my father’s side.  What I remember most about my father’s mother is that we had to sneak to Brooklyn to see her as my mother did not like her!  How sad…  to deprive a grandchild of those very special memories only grandparents can provide!  I hope to change this for you and your family:

Say It With eCards Judaic Greetings is offering an elegant and tasteful selection of Grandparents Day eCards.  The collection includes:

• Judaic Grandparents Day eCards — SEE ALL 
• Judaic Grandparents Day eCards — for both Grandparents
• Judaic Grandparents Day eCards — for Grandmother / Bubbe
• Judaic Grandparents Day eCards — for Grandfather / Zayde

As you may have noticed, I designed for both Grandparents and “single” Grandparents.  As sad and unfortunate as this is, both Grandparents may not be with us, so I designed with that in mind.

PERSONAL NOTE:  Life is so short as we learn daily… Being remembered is so important to ALL of us.  Please take a moment to send Grandparents Day eCards to your Grandparents.  You can send one to both and then to each alone. How fun is that!

Warm Regards to You and Yours,

Since Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year is a little more than six (6) weeks away, I figured NOW would be as good a time as any to start previewing Say It With eCards Judaic Greetings selection of Rosh Hashanah 5769 eCards.

In case you have not noticed, you will…  I have a flair for the untraditional.  You will see what I mean by the names of the categories below.  However, we are dealing with people here and people come from all walks of life and their circumstances are not always the same — sometimes, we should be grateful they are not.

Subhead:  Say It With eCards Free Shabbat Shalom eCard Offer

I am thrilled to report that my Free Shabbat Shalom eCards / Free Shabbos eCards offer was a great success.

I was just fed up with all the gloom and doom talk about the economy, stocks, bonds, gas prices, food prices, etc. etc..   It’s all true, but… I just had enough and wanted to do something positive and touch others lives while doing so.

Shabbos comes every week… What better way than to offer a free selection of Shabbat Shalom eCards / Shabbos eCards. 

I am thrilled to say that many of the cards were sent and I can only hope they brought much joy to the senders and their recipients.  I know I was ecstatic to see them sent.  This offer was made late, so I hope next week/Shabbos it will be more effective!

The Free Shabbat Shalom eCards can be found here:

Enjoy!
