Gifts Galore
It's that time of year. The mailbox is full of graduation announcements and wedding invitations. Relatives and friends you haven't heard from in years are climbing out the woodwork to 'invite' you to their special days - read SEND A CHECK.
Buy a card, write a few words of wisdom, promise to stay in touch in the future and INCLUDE A CHECK.
Then wait and wait and wait and wait for a thank you card.
Actually, all of our check receivers were very well brought up and all of them sent thank you cards within a very respectable amount of time.
My favorite:
"Thank you very much for the gift. It's greatly appreciated, though I think you gave me a bit too much."After reading his response, I love this kid. And trust me, he can use it more than any of the others we sent to. Maybe getting raised by a single mom in a house that is barely standing gives kids a lot of honesty and character.
