Graduation DayMy daughter’s high school graduation class had 1,200 graduates in it. It took 2 full hours for them all to march across the stage and receive their diplomas. This year there was a change in venue. Graduation was moved to the Dallas Convention Center and it was impossible to hold every family member and guest who might have wanted to attend the big event. And so, each graduate was allotted 6 tickets.

Frantic phone calls began the minute this plan was announced. There was a mad rush to secure extra tickets for aunts, uncles, cousins, family friends and everyone who wanted to come and join in the celebration. I’m told some students were even selling their tickets if they had extra ones on hand, but I can’t confirm that!

I was approached by many, asking if I had any extras. As it turned out, I did have extra tickets to give to those in need and was happy to accommodate them. What surprised me though was the lovely Thank You Card I received following graduation day from one of those I shared a ticket with. With out of town guests to entertain along with all the hoopla that goes with graduation, how this lovely lady managed to find the time to write and mail a thank you card for my unused ticket was a delightful surprise.

Thank YOU, Andrea!

So folks, do you remember to send Thank You Cards when a nice gesture of appreciation is called for?

High School Graduate!My daughter recently graduated from high school, hooray! She proudly sent graduation invitations to many friends and family members, not fully realizing the many well wishes that would soon come her way. The truly exceptional remembrances came from those not even on her send list. Those unexpected congratulations were a true delight.

What impressed me though was her unprompted sending of thank you cards! What a proud mom I was when I noticed her writing thank yous before I even had a chance to suggest it. Of course, at an early age she was taught to write thank you cards for birthday and Christmas presents, often with constant reminding, but I was pleased to see she, on her own, realized that graduation presents called for this same courtesy.

How about you? Do you and your children send thank you cards? A thank you doesn’t have to be just for gifts received. Thank you cards are great whenever a show of appreciation is called for. Set a good example and remember those deserving with a thoughtful greeting. It will bring a smile to you and to the lucky recipient as well as set a great example for your children!

Graduation invitations and graduation announcements send word of your accomplishment. One is for inviting friends and family to the ceremony itself or a party afterwards. The other lets everyone know you have achieved a goal.

Graduation is a year round event. True, the majority of students graduate in May or June but many graduate mid-year and plenty graduate from all sorts of programs with all kinds of degrees or certifications all year long. A graduation signifies an achievement to be celebrated.
Graduation Congratulations Cards
It is an honor to be included on a graduate’s mailing list and although gifts should not necessarily be expected, it is proper etiquette to remember someone special with at least congratulations cards. A small gift is nice as well if you choose to send one. See the complete article here and this recap for popular graduation gift suggestions:

•Money. Who wouldn’t appreciate a bit of cash?
•Jewelry. Something personalized marking the date of graduation is a keepsake to last a lifetime.
•Practical. Gifts that help the graduate along their next step in life are useful and appreciated.
•Books. Books are nice remembrances and I don’t mean textbooks.
•Personalized. Note cards with their name personalized on them make great thank you cards or cards for any occasion.

However you choose to honor the graduate, keep it heartfelt and include best wishes for their future. They deserve it!

Planning a graduation party? Here is a great source for Personalized Graduation Napkins. Select the napkin color and size, then personalize them with the graduation cap and diploma design, graduation date, and whatever else you feel is appropriate, all printed in the color of your choosing. Order plenty as we know graduates can eat and drink a lot and will return to the buffet table numerous times! Many will want to keep these special napkins for souvenirs as well.

You may also want to provide party favors. Thinking outside the large or small gift box, how about Sewing Kit Favors?! Who couldn’t use a handy sewing kit when mom is not around for mending duty! You could personalize it with the school name, graduation date and add, “We’re Sew Proud of You”!

We're Sew Proud of You!

Or maybe you should send each graduate home with a set of Personalized Graduation Thank You Cards as a gentle reminder!

Graduation is a time of reflection and hope for the future. Enjoy the celebrations!
