Life as Thank You 44

Vanessa,

I am writing thank you notes each week this year to work on the discipline of gratitude.  I want to take the opportunity, in light of your birthday, to tell you how grateful I am for you.

You are more than smart.  I love your drive, your creativity, your humor and your logic.  I am so proud of the way you make the most of every opportunity.

You are more than pretty.  You are beautiful, inside and out, but even more than that you are not the sum of your beauty alone.  Your character and your lifestyle make you stunning.

You are more than kind. There is not a mean bone in your body.  Your parents did well in raising you to be big hearted but you too have crafted a character that is one to follow.

You are more than a christian; you are a disciple, following and pursuing a relationship with God.

Because you are a teacher and 26 I thought this would be appropriate:

I love You!
