These days, the love notes are more succinct, sent in the form of a text, or expressed visually with intimate photographs.
For a 13-year-old girl, in her final year of elementary school, they were a private exchange between her and her first boyfriend.

The soil was dry and hard in places and there were still cut blackberry brambles strewn on the ground with their thorns intact - but the kids in Megan Cordoni's class at Alexander Robinson Elementary kept digging with their shovels a few weeks ago until they could plant red alderberry, cedar, and fir trees by Cottonwood Creek.
Several classes took turns that day digging holes to plant native plants along the creek by their school under the watchful eye of Alouette River Management Society (ARMS) representatives.

They took what information they could, often just a name and a city, and promised to try and get the card to their mothers, sisters, daughters and wives.
