Greeting cards make it special...

Greeting cards play a big role to whatever the occasion is. With or without a gift, a simple card would still make the day. Back when I was in grade school, we make simple cards with any resources that we could get. We did not have to buy ready-made ones because they were not as accessible like these days. A simple sheet of paper folded into four would do. We draw using our pencils or if we are lucky, we could just share crayons just to add color to our art. Nevertheless, as our teacher said, it's the thought that counts. And our parents as the recepients[always couldn't be happier to have received such simple but eloquent present.

Would you believe that I only got my art set when I already graduated school? I lacked so much of school supplies, and when I compare the then and now, I would say it is a complete opposite. My daughter[2 years old] already owns a lot. Honestly, on father’s day, we tried making our personalized/ homemade greeting cards. We made one during our crèche in the church and one again at home. We are just thankful that the Dad appreciated it, though Father’s Day to him is not as important as Mother’s Day and Birthdays.
