Thank you so much for being here. If you have ever stared at a blank card, not knowing what to say to a veteran in your life, you are not alone. It does not need to be long or fancy. It just needs to be honest.
Here are a few simple lines you can use, or change in your own words:
- Thank you for your service, and for all you gave so we could be home safe.
- I am so grateful for you, today and every day.
- Thinking of you with gratitude, and honoring all you have done.
- Thank you for serving, and for being someone our family looks up to.
If it is for your dad, a short, personal line means even more: thank you for everything you taught me, and for your service. If it is for a grandpa, try: I am so thankful for you.
You don’t need to find the perfect words. A few honest lines, in your own handwriting, are what people cherish.
If you need a card to go with those words, here are some of the Veterans Day cards from the shop. They are printable, so you can download, print at home, and have one ready tonight:
