Thanks for the year. The work was demanding. The team made it survivable. You are part of why.

Thank you for the small kindnesses that hold a team together — the covers, the help, the kind word, the willingness to stay late one more time.

Thanks, coworker. The friendship inside the work is the part I'm most grateful for. Today, the gratitude is loud.
