As we approach the New Year, I have began thinking about my New Year’s resolution.  This year’s resolutions are typical – be healthy, be happy, etc.  However, this year I have added something new,  in 2009 I want to make the effort to reconnect with those I have lost touch with the most.  Having recently been home for the holidays, I am realizing how little I get to interact with those that matter most to me and that I can change that with a little effort.

Of course, working at Tiny Prints I love paper.  So, I figure there is no better way to start this effort than by sending thank you cards to everyone at home who gave me a Christmas gift this year.  Additionally, I plan to use my stash of personalized thank you notes to keep in touch through the art of hand-written letters!

There is no denying that the handwritten word is fading away – especially for keeping in touch,  but at Tiny Prints we believe in Emily Post’s statement that a “written thank-you is your best bet for an expression of warm, heartfelt thanks. ”

The holidays is a time of family and togetherness, which is why we were really touched when we noticed an order placed by a U.S. battalion based in Iraq (below).

As we get ready to celebrate the holidays with our families over the next few days and weeks, we wanted to wish all of the troops and their families well wishes for the holidays.  You are all true heroes and we wanted to say thank you for putting your lives at risk every day.

Happy Holidays from Tiny Prints.
