Gratitude

When we were growing up, my mom always insited that we send thank you cards or letters after receiving gifts (so birthdays and Christmas for certain). Now that I am older, I still feel this is a very important thing but have encountered a slight difficulty! I feel like sendng my gratitude in the form of some artwork. But when faced with the prospect of sending handpainted or drawn gratitude to all those who I wish to thank, I encounter the issue of time...

The result this year, one painting:

I don't know that it really is enough. However, this is what I can manage at the moment. And, dearly beloveds, know that it comes with heartfelt appreciation for all you have given me and all you do for me!
