I'm so glad you're back-I missed this blog and hearing from you! Yes, I have to say I did write a few thank-yous-but I think they were all electronic (sigh) I dont' think I'll ever be as good as you and Am about this...
I feel so overwhelmed by this at Christmastime. Not only is there that holiday for which to return thanks, but all my kids' birthdays around then, too. I think we did most of our thank you's, but I often worry about those we may have skipped over or let slide through the cracks. I think about all the things I try to teach my kids and wonder how many of them will actually stick. This is one I feel is so important. As a society, we are drifting away from expressing gratitude in general, and then making an effort to communicate in a sincere and personal way is something we are losing, too. Good for you for doing this, Bobbin!
