Forever grateful for you.

A Thank You Letter To My Parents
Darcy Pacheco

Dear Mom & Dad,

Words cannot describe how appreciative I am to the both of you. I know that it may not be a sentiment that I often express, but I truly am. I would be lost without your guidance. You have been there for me whenever I have needed it and you continue to endlessly support me through my endeavors. It doesn't matter what time of day it is, I know I can always count on you.

Not everyone is as fortunate to have parents who are as incredible as you. Every day I consider it a blessing to have such loving parents who do nothing but sacrifice on my behalf for my own happiness.

You always put me ahead of your own needs, and I can't even keep track of the number of sacrifices you've made for me. I know that you always wanted to give me a life that was better than the ones you had growing up and, trust me, you have far surpassed that. Just know that none of the sacrifices you've made have gone unnoticed and I am forever grateful for all that you do.

The morals and values you have instilled in me from such a young age have shaped the person I have become today. I can say that I am a strong, confident, and independent woman and I owe it all to you. You have taught me the importance of being myself and always remembering where I come from, which is something I will never lose sight of.

Thank you so, so, so much for giving me the absolute world. I will never be able to repay you. You are two of the most important people in my life and I hope I make you proud to be your daughter.

Love,

Your Grateful Daughter

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time.
