My oldest daughter, husband, and grandson Gavin now out west skiing and just received this wonderful picture which includes a childhood friend of Gavin's, they all look so happy.



My biggest smile yesterday and heartfelt love for my youngest granddaughter as I read her thank you note :)

Grandma, thank you so much for your gift of ......dollars!
It was extremely generous of you and am very grateful for your consideration.
Love you to the moon and back... A,R.

Her words impress me at her young age,,,,

Thank you notes are such a treasure. Better than a phone call sometimes.

Now aren't those the sweetest words! They just fill your heart with love.

Thank you notes are nearly a lost art. I am guilty of not writing them as often as I should. We could all learn something from your young granddaughter!

I love thank you notes and notes with photos from the grand kids. Their mother's taught them right, didn't they? (which means we did something right in teaching their mothers.) LOL

Treasured photos and handwritten notes to save, maybe return to them in the future which will have special meaning to them then, too.
