and knowing just what to do
Thank you for knowing the words to say
when I'm feeling way beyond blue
Thank you for patiently listening
to all my worries and stresses
Thank you for caring enough
to get me out of all my messes
Thank you for being a phone call away
or around the corner to run to
Thank you for your door always being open
and knowing just what to do
Thank you for being my constant support
when i didn't think I could cope
Thank you for lifting my spirits
and letting me know there is hope
Thank you for being the best parents
a daughter could ever wish for
I love you with all my heart
today and forever more.
As I look back on my life
I find myself wondering...
Did I remember to thank you
for all that you have done for me?
For all of the times you were by my side
to help me celebrate my successes
and accept my defeats?
Or for teaching me the value of hard work,
good judgement, courage, and honesty?
I wonder if I've ever thanked you
for the simple things...
The laughter, smiles, and quiet times we've shared?
If I have forgotten to express my gratitude
For any of these things,
I am thanking you now...
and I am hoping that you've known all along,
how very much you are loved and appreciated
