Taylor Swift just gave back to a fan who has been giving back to postal workers across the U.S.
A few weeks ago, 11-year-old Emerson Weber wrote a letter to her postal carrier thanking them for their work during the coronavirus crisis, hand-decorating the envelope of her letter. Well, after it was shared in a postal service newsletter she started receiving letters in return, and has now been writing back to all her new pen pals. (She was recently featured on John Krasinski’s Some Good News).
Well, when Taylor found out about it, and heard that in some of her letters she talked about being a Taylor fan, the singer decided to get in on the action. She sent Emerson her very own care package, which included a handwritten, decorated note from Taylor herself, along with some “Lover” merch, and wax seal with the number 13.
"The past couple days have been beyond our wildest dreams, but today was a fairytale. I’m not sure I can fully capture what we just experienced, but I’ll do my best…ready for it?" Weber's father tweeted before showing of the package, adding that Taylor was “touched... honored... happy... to hear about Emerson mentioning her & her music in her letters,” noting, “but, she found it more important that she 'writes letters to people who don’t expect a thank you.'" Check it out below.

Inside the package was a simple envelope...

Hand painted. With Gems. A wax seal - TAS. And, “Glitter glued with TSwift’s personal glitter glue,” according to Emerson. pic.twitter.com/x4px2KChhM

Then, came the letter. Oh dear lord, this letter.

All four of us - including Finn - sat quietly & hung on every word as Emerson read the letter aloud.
Most of the letter is personal and between Em & Taylor. But a couple of details just for you…
She wrote, “Dearest Emerson…”

Side note: Taylor took a moment to recommend that Emerson have a parent help her with the wax. She thinks of everything.

When I say she thought of everything - I mean it.

“I hope you’re feeling good during isolation & not too lonely…”
“Make sure to find time to create & daydream…”
“And remember, no one expects you to be perfect...you’ve already set a really cool example and I’m proud of you. :)”Source: Billboard
