Torrie's Gracious Question

My cousin Torrie has our next question.

Question: If someone writes you a thank you note and sends a gift for the kids in response to something nice you did for that individual, is it then expected that I write a thank you note for the gift? It's like writing a thank you note for writing a thank you note. It could be a never ending cycle!

Answer: What a lovely question! It is always correct to send a thank you note when you receive a gift. Even when the gift was given as thanks.

You do not, however, have to thank a person for her thank you note.

So, unless you receive another gift in response to your note, the cycle has reached its conclusion.

Enjoy your stationery!
