Mira’s kindergarten class has been practicing the art of writing letters. They’ve mostly been working on the “hey, how are you?” type letters, but it has been mentioned that they can write thank you notes, too.
We’ve also tried to teach our kids the importance of saying thank you and being grateful when someone gives you something or does something helpful for you.
So I shouldn’t have been surprised when Mira proudly presented me with a thank you note. She admitted she got help from daddy on spelling some of the words, and help in taping it back together when it ripped as she pulled it out of her notebook. But the sentiment? All hers.
Of all of the things she could think of to thank me for, she chose taxes. I’m really not sure what to say to that.
