- (To those who left a comment on the spider's web, thank you for your faithfulness. I HAD to find something new to move on! It was so unlike me to put up something like that that I find just creepy!) -
So Holidays! Winter! Christmas is a'Comin'! and Snowmen! Phew! I'm in a Holiday Mood now! Starting with my granddaughter, I've made cards for her to write "Thank You" notes for the gifts she receives. When I've tried this in the past for the grandkids, I made each card different, and then "they don't want to give them away!" I'll write a card for her to keep and I hope she'll use the stamped envelopes to send the rest along!
I love doing these things, and I couldn't post without dipping into the chest of winter overlays!
@edorreandresen@gardencat@illinilass@bkbinthecity@danette Growing up, we sat down to write our Thank you notes the day after Christmas, and we taught our girls to do the same. Now with assistance from their moms and some cute new cards, I hope the tradition will carry on with our grandchildren. I love making this sort of thing and need an outlet for them! One can treasure a handwritten note in ways an email cannot keep alive the message! Thank you to all of you for the kind words!
Ah, this is lovely. After reading this post, I had to go back and check on your spider web photo to see if I had commented or not. I'm glad to say that I am one of the faithful! Ha ha! Your comments on thank you notes brings me back too, as we always had to do that as kids, and I certainly MADE my kids do it too! Sadly I am not certain that many do it these days. :-( So, I'm very glad to read that you're encouraging your granddaughter!
