Monica needs a little help with this situation

Need a little help here!  I’m going to air out a little dirty laundry.

I’m not going to lie, I have a strained relationship with my younger sister, through no fault of my own.  She is just very stubborn and head strong.  I won’t go into the boring details of when, where and why it all started because we would be starting way back to 1988-89ish.  I will tell you there was an incident that happened a couple years ago that ended with me pulling back from her and just watching from afar.

Here’s my problem….So, my family and I are organizing, getting rid of, recycling stuff…just going through the whole house and de-cluttering.  I was cleaning out a closet and found some stuff that belongs to my sister from her childhood…report cards, pictures she drew and painted, stuff like that.  I have no idea how I ended up with it after all these years, i have a hunch it was in a box my parents brought to me.

I am not the type of person to just throw that away, I know she may want it.  She is my sister and I love her, we are family, but because of her actions, I have pulled back.  My dilemma is, when I send it to her, should I put a note in there?

Just a simple note?  “Hey sister!  Thought you might want this stuff, Love you, Monica”

Or should I just put no note in there at all and send with a return address?

My thought is, she may blow this whole thing up on social media and blah, blah, blah.

I’m stuck and I think this is why I haven’t sent it sooner.

What do you think??
