Give "Them" Thought &Thanks

What is the most valuable, non-material gift you've received from your mom or dad?

Sometimes we forget to stop and think about the people in our lives who have given us the most.

Is it that they're so close, we don't see them - take them for granted? Or is it that we think they should just know how we feel? Or do we thank them, but it's a cover-all thanks, like, "You're always there for me - thanks for being the best dad ever."

That thank you is good. It may mean even more if we singled out something non-material they have given us that is invaluable, and let them hear the thanks they would love to receive - in person, or give them a call, an email, better yet, a hand written message from your heart.

Would love to hear what you've come up with and how you thanked them. And what response did you get?
