Town Bank - I think the best gift we can give at holiday giving time is to teach children how to say "thank you." Not many know how to hand write thank you cards to thoughtful givers. Any young person who I've given gifts to that hasn't sent a thank you note to me after successively given gifts gets cut from the list. Text messages do not count no matter how many cute icons it has. Hand-addressed cards always get opened first because of the effort to address it. Computer labels work for businesses and physically-challenged people, not for thankful people.
