I’m horrible about writing thank you notes… While many people were forced to write a nice note to each relative who gave them something, my family didn’t believe in it. It was their belief that if you said “thank you” either in person or over the phone, that was enough. Not saying they didn’t try to get us to, but since I don’t recall seeing them every write a thank you note they didn’t model the importance. Now as an adult, I do like getting them. It tells me that the gift actually arrived. It’s also nice to hear about what’s going on. I’m still horrible at it. My current excuse is I don’t have any notecards to write on. I’m thinking of using “no stamps” next.
