This was new to me, but not nearly as shocking as lots of other things I've had to adjust to. I just needed to make sure I was understanding this correctly.

and... sadly, I must confess, I was one of those that never did get thank-you's sent out after we got married.. I still have the cards with what the people gave us written on the back.. We will have our 43 anniversary on the 22nd of this month... do you think I should still send them?? We were working full time, I was working 10 hour shifts, and we were both in college.. It just didn't get done, even though I knew it should. sigh... more guilt to deal with...
I think it would be a great idea, I think the ones still alive would enjoy the thought and knowing that you still think of them. I was one of my daughter's showers and one of the guests and I were talking about our showers, the things we were given and the ones who gave them to us. People like to know that you are thinking of them
