I believe it is important to recognize what we appreciate in life even if it’s something small. This post is all about what I appreciate but written in letter form for each subject.

I appreciate who you are and that you love me for who I am. I appreciate that you’re always on my side. Thank you for being you.

Dear Daughters,

Dear Girls on the Run,

Thank you for making a difference. I am truly grateful to be a part of your program and growing every single day with the message you teach young girls and adults.

Dear Mom Friends,
Thank you for understanding, supporting, and reaching out. Thank you for not judging and lifting me up. Thank you for your empathy. Motherhood is hard. And it’s okay to say it’s hard. Finding the right mom friends can make the difference during the trenches of motherhood. Thank you for being that kind of friend to me. You’re a good mom. Always remember that. Thank you for making sure I know that too.

Thank you for cheering me on. Thank you for following me because you believe in what I believe in. You support and trust my passion in fashion. Thank you for listening to me, taking the time to watch and love what I create. Thank you for the questions, the shopping through my links and shops, thank you for being positive. It has been a challenge putting myself out there but by having a community who supports what I do, it means the absolute world to me. I am following a dream of mine and I thank you for being a part of that journey with me.
Dear Self:
Thank you for making time for me. Thank you for your positive affirmations. Thank you for your kindness. I truly believe to be loved by others, the love starts with you. I love me, I love who I am, I know my worth, I love my life. This life, your dreams, your family, is absolutely beautiful. We did this. I am proud of who you’ve become. I am proud of the changes you’re making. Thank you for always finding a way to be okay through all the bad. Thank you for being my biggest fan. Thank you for being you.
Make a list of who and what you appreciate and write them a short letter. It’s a great way to think of the positives in your life. There’s always time to show appreciation even for the smallest things.
If you’ve made it this far, thank you so much for reading. Who would you write an appreciation letter to and for what? I’d love to chat about it!
Very Respectfully,
Susana
P.S. Shout out to my brother in law introducing the “very respectfully” to end a message. I’m obsessed! And will be my new conclusion to every message.
