Saying Thanks…The Busy Mommy Way

I grew up not sending Thank You’s.  We did however always say Thank You but didn’t send a card. I’ve learned it’s the proper thing to do. This took some time to see people enjoy getting a thank you when they give you gifts…or do they? I’ll be honest when I say that I read the Thank You’s I receive but I don’t cherish these little notes sent to me. They usually end up in the trash or I take off the cover if it’s something I can use later and You all need to be honest that for the most part your Thank You’s end up in the same place…even if displayed for a bit.

Super Secret Liam Pants turned 3. He had a great party and all the kids had a ton of fun at Joey’s Gym.

Thank You’s had to be sent.

My first thought and yes, the first batch went using a app called Ink and included a piece of art Liam created turned into a Thank You laminated post card that was sent to the first half of those who came to Liam’s party. Basically those I had physical addresses for then and there when I was making the Thank You’s.

Now my intention was to contact the rest on the list and get their physical addresses too BUT I remembered I had credit with Paperless Post and well I have all the email addresses there and I could sent email Thank You’s and be a little green, save time, and still take the time to say Thank You.

After all is said and done I sent out all the Thank You’s and I hope everyone knows how much Mr. Secret Liam Pants enjoyed his party with his awesome friends and family….I learned that I don’t have to be the perfect mom and sit there writing out Thank You cards and that no one told me I have to be that perfect mother and really no mother is perfect but we are all great moms in our own way.  Even busy working moms who try and be domestic goddesses from time to time.
