Thank♥ You Notes

I blogged about a book a few months ago called "The Last Lecture."  It was a motivational speaker who was dealing with  a terminal illness.  But one thing he recommended in his book is the good old fashion THANK YOU NOTE.

I love this idea, I try to write thank you notes often and encourage my children to do the same.  I don't mean texting, IM, or e-mail, I mean a good old fashion THANK YOU NOTE with your handwriting and a stamp.  It makes people feel you went the extra mile, and you will learn to be more grateful and aware of others goodness.  Here are some suggestions of phrases appropriate for a note;

• I'll think of you every time I look at it (or use it).

• What an original present.

• Thank you for the beautiful card and a present on top of that!

• You shouldn't have.

• Thanks for not only taking the time to think of me, but to send (bring) a gift as well.

• Words cannot convey my gratitude.

• Your generosity overwhelms me.

• You can have no idea how much it means to me.

• However did you find this!

• It's stunning!

• It looks like one-of-a-kind.

• Thank you for your thoughtfulness
