Dear Mom and Dad,
Since Thanksgiving was last week, I thought I would take a second to tell you guys how much I appreciate you. Especially since this is one of my last holidays home before I leave for college.
You both have always pushed me to be my very best; In school, In work, and in who I am. Without you two, I honestly don't know where or who I would be. Going off to college is going to be so hard on me, because of how much I'm going to miss you guys.
Even though I'm not going very far, it's still going to be weird to not see you every day. I'll probably call you both at least like, 20 times a day.
As I've gotten older, you both have become more like best friends to me rather than parents. Seriously, no one else makes me laugh as hard as you guys do. (Especially all those dad jokes) I'm forever grateful for all of the little road trips, family outings, and the time we spend together in general. Even if I don't say it enough, I really appreciate you guys so much.
I'm also thankful to have been raised in such a loving, Christian home. We have a million signs in our house about love and faith, but the two of you alone are the biggest sources of inspiration for me.
You've led by example, and seeing how much you both love God has instilled the same love in me. No doubt, the biggest thank you I owe to you guys Is for showing me what it's like to know and serve God.
There are a million things to thank you both for, this is only a few of a very long list. You'll never know how much I love you guys, or how much you mean to me. I hope someday that I can be even half of the people, let alone parents, that you both are.
Love,
Your very thankful daughter.
