As a parent, there are certain things in life that I try to instill in my children. And one of those things is the importance of handing out thank you cards. When the children are given anything from someone, I try to ensure that they make up and send a thank you card. This is especially important around the holiday season. Even though my youngest son is only eight, for the past couple of years I have encouraged him to send Holiday Thank You Cards to his family for the gifts they give him. There is nothing better than receiving Thank You Cards Holidays especially when it comes from a child. I always send out Christmas thank you cards. And it is my hope that the children will continue to send out thank you cards holidays even when their well into their adult years and don’t have mom around to remind them.

I have to tell you all that I am pretty much at the end of my rope these days with my two youngest kids and all the fighting they do. They just never stop! They really do love one another, but for some reason they think they need to show their love by constantly fighting. In three days time they will be home from school for the summer and I honestly don’t know how this is going to work out. If they spend their entire summer vacation fighting, I really don’t know what I will do. I have tried everything to calm down all this fighting, but nothing seems to work.

So, if anyone in here has any ideas how I can control all this fighting, my ears are wide open.
