Writing thank you notes is always a wonderful gesture to let someone know you appreciate what they did for you. But not every occasion needs a “thank you”, but rather a “you did it!” or “remember when…” or an “I love you”. So why not have personalized stationery that says that? If you had a variety of cards that acknowledged not only thank you, but other events, it would encourage you to write more notes. You could tell your husband about how happy he made you feel when he brought you coffee at work with a “You make me smile” card or stick an “I love you” note in your kids’ lunch box as a little surprise. You could send a note to your niece congratulating her on her first goal in soccer with a “you did it!” card.

Sending a handwritten thank you note is very important, but there are other events to acknowledge and other words you can use to put a smile on someone’s face!
