Before our trip to WDW 8/22-8/29 there was a very nice Dis'er that sent my girls a postcard..so in return i offered to send some out as well. Well i sent out my cards like i said i would, while we were there..and you know what..not one of them ever said Thank You. Am i wrong to feel a bit upset by this? As soon as we recieved ours i pm'd our fairy godmailer and thanked them right away, i thought this was the right thing to do.
Oh well maybe i am over reacting..just felt the need to vent. :sad2:

*I got my Thank you from one and feel a litle better! ;)
 
Totally agree with you, a simple thank you would be nice.
 
I sent out 5 post cards last April and I only received one thank you. A thank you would have been nice from the rest, but I just assumed that people get busy.

Try not to let it get you down. You did a very nice thing and probably made some child's day. :goodvibes
 
There is a Diser that is sending my dds a Cinderella letter when she goes, and she already got a Thank You and will definately get another one. She deserves it, she's going to make my princesses' day :) I think I will do this when I go in March, I think it's so nice.
 

I sent out some last September on our trip. I received not one Thank You either. Yep put me back a little too.
 
If you are the one who sent one to me or my friend's DD...I had deleted my IM's and couldnt find who I had asked :blush: Please let me know if it was an Abbey or a Julia..because these little girls LOVED the cards and I am indeed very grateful!
 
Nope wasn't me..but i'm happy to hear that someone made your princess' happy!
 
I am guilty of not sending a thank you too...without even thinking about it, I had deleted my PMs too :guilty:

And I also deleted the addresses I was supposed to play fairy gomailer to...but thank goodness I had already written them down elsewhere!!!

So a very belated thank you to the fairy godmailer who sent my little Lorelei a beautiful card from Cinderella last June!!!

And just know in your heart your efforts were appreciated, especially by the child/children who received the cards, if not by the mom or dad who requested them.

Yes they did..and surprised a friend and her daughter too..

If the people who were the fairy godmailers to Abbey and Julia in NH read this ..please PM me!!!!!! :goodvibes
 
I also would of and wanted to send a thank you, but forgot who sent it to my daughter. I also deleted my Pms and forgot who sent it. I don't think people are rude on purpose all the time, :confused3 sometimes "things happen"
 
Is it worse to not say thank you, or to not send a postcard when you said you would. I had someone volunteer to send my kids a postcard, and it never happened! :confused3

could some one please explain how this works? I get the general idea, but what are you all saying on your cards?? Thanks.. I posted this question in fairy godmailer... but no one answered my question :( I would like to do this next year?

This happend to us too!! I was a little sad about it, but like a pp said, 'things happen'. This was new for us so my kids knew nothing about it, therefore I didn't have to field any questions from them! :p
I never gave it a thought that they could have deleted my pm! :blush: Glad I read this thread!
 
I guess they could have deleted the PM. But then again, they could have written the info down right away like I did! My kids knew nothing about it either. Lets hope the Enchanted Call comes through!
 
I'm sorry flame me if you must but I just don't get the whole sorry, I couldn't thank you because I deleted your PM.

Someone took time out of their trip to send your child a postcard to make your childs trip more magical.

Sorry, I think its rude. Mistakes happen I agree, but its still rude. I sent them out my last trip but won't this time. I even walked around to 3 different stores to find a Buzz postcard for the 1 person.

A thank you would have been nice!
 
I too am guilty of not sending a quick thank you. to the person who sent my boys a card.. im so sorry for doing letting it slip but here is a big THANK YOU!!! you made two boys smile :banana: :love: :thumbsup2

and I will be playing fairy godmailer to some children on our up coming trip as well . :wizard:
 
I agree....and had something similiar happen. I was doing exchanges and sent what I thought was a special exchange and it never got acknowledged. I tried to not let it bother me but the only thing I can think of is the person who received it didn't like it. Made me sad. So I totally understand how you feel.
 
If any of you were a Fairy Godmailer for my DS and DD Andy and Kati in Ohio please let me know because someone sent my kids postcards but i don't remember who it was
 
Now I feel bad...my Fairy Godmailer sent my kids their postcards this past week and I can't remember who did it! I deleted my PMs in an attempt to clean up my mailbox and deleted those too! I think I will put a generic THANK YOU on the Fairy Godmailer site in case she checks it. I feel terrible for being so STUPID!

If our Fairy Godmailer is reading this post...THANK YOU! My DS and DD were delighted to receive their postcards! I LOVE how your personalized them so well adding the fire truck and tinkerbell references. They were perfect. They came at the perfect time too because DS has been asking me when we are going to Disney. Please feel free to PM me so I can thank you personally. I'm so sorry I deleted your info!

Thanks!

I should add that I'm sending out postcards in October when we go and I was smart enough to write that info down...so I will be sending those out. It's saved in my computer and in my "travel folder".
