Note of Gratitude

I made 2 notes of gratitudes, one to my friend on campus and one to my parents at home. For the note to my friend, I thanked him for always being there form me. I tried to express my gratitude sincerely and fully. He was very grateful for the note and that was that. For the note to my parents, I thanked them for helping me become who I am today. I expressed my gratitude for them and I also showed my appreciation for them doing many things for me (driving me, cooking for me, doing laundery, cleaning, etc.).
