Thank You Notes

Thank you notes are so small, but they can mean so much. I spent my entire day writing thank you notes for the gifts that my wife and I received for our wedding. I didn't realize how long it would take to write 40 thank you notes, it took me about 5 hours to write and address all of the letters. However, writing those letter really made me think about how much I appreciate all of the friends that I have. They are such caring and loyal friends that will be there for us no matter what. 

As I wrote the letters, I realized that the thank you notes were such a small gesture compared to the gifts that were given. I almost felt as though I needed to give a gift of equal value just to show my appreciation, but the more I thought about it, the thank you note is all that is needed. Sometimes you just need to let someone do something nice for you to let them be charitable towards you. 

Now, it just feels good to be done writing them. My fingers hurt, but my heart is full and I am excited to send them out. I want people to know that I truly do appreciate their love and support.
