It wasn't until he'd received an award for volunteering (yes, I said volunteering!) to write thank you notes from the embassy's Obama visit AND had received a shiny, framed award from the Ambassador*, that he really began to believe*** in the art of thank you note writing.
*This is, in fact, Ambassador Shannon, not just some guy who didn't get an award.
**I'd like to think my smashing example and nearly six marital years of nagging had a bit to do with it. Also, two awards were actually won, but they didn't want him to look like such a show off so they only let him hold one.
Parabens Paulo!
