POVs Thank You Notes

Do you write your thank your notes from your kids from their point of view or from yours?  As in:

Dear Max,

Thanks so much for coming to my party.  I will have so much fun with the Little People you gave me.

Love, Finley

or

Dear Max,

Thanks so much for coming to Finley's party.  She will have so much fun with the Little People you gave her.

Love, (what do I put here?)

  • I think if you're sending it to a kid, it should be from F.  If you're sending it to another adult (single person, couple without kids, etc) then it should be from all of you (K, C & F).

  • We've written them from the girl's point of view and had them help in whatever way they could.  Helping them write their name, letting them "draw" on the note, or helping with the wording (when Mia turned 3).  It has helped them be a part of the process and the thanking.

    This.

    Madeline was included in signing Christmas cards last year when she was 2 by simply coloring the backs of the ones for closest family and such.  This year she'll sign her name on those as well as the thank you cards from her 4th birthday party.

    As a mom who hasn't had to do this yet, I liked seeing if from F's POV.  Maybe put F's handprint or something on them to personalize them from her?  If we had attended F's party and I received this TY note, I would read it to my son and it would sound better, make more sense coming from her POV.

  • I always write ours from child to child....
