Of course, my brother and I would whine and complain because we would have to handwrite each card, but it taught us to show appreciation for all that we are given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would send <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/all-occasion-cards\/thank-you-cards.htm\">Thank You cards<\/a> out for my children when they were little but now it\u2019s their turn. Naturally, their response is \u201cCan\u2019t I just send a text?\u201d My response is to ask them how it feels when they get a card a mail. That seems to be enough of an explanation. We all get that warm and fuzzy feeling when there is a surprise in the mailbox even if it\u2019s as simple as a card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing the right thing in your personal life will carry through to your professional life. When business associates stop in with donuts or my boss brings us lunch, I always make sure to send a Thank You card. The first time I did this my boss was so surprised that I would do such a thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t fall victim to the lost art of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/all-occasion-cards\/thank-you-cards.htm\">Thank You Cards<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Recognizing good deeds or generous gifts is just common courtesy;
