For more than forty years, Richard and Linda have sent out a Thanksgiving card to friends and family at the holiday season rather than a Christmas card. The traditional and original cards that go out every November contain the latest family picture and a poem that tries to express the main focal points of their gratitude for the year past.
Taken together, these 40 poems and some additional poetry to introduce and lead into them, give a wonderfully in-depth picture of what awareness, appreciation, gratitude, and thanks-giving can be. Teaching our children to feel and express thankfulness can be a great legacy, and a boost to their lifelong happiness.
