Here is one I gave T a year ago:

Thank you
For believing in me when I haven’t believed in myself
For looking past the dirt and garbage, and finding a child
For hearing what I need to say
and even more for hearing what I can’t say
For teaching me to hear
For seeing me
For hugging me and holding me
For sitting with my pain; for sitting with Me
For giving, giving, giving and opening your heart
For refusing to go under with me, and
For being my reason to reach and not go under
For laughing with me, for smiling at me, for reading to me
For sharing with me, for telling me things
For being my example and often my beacon
as well as my guide, and my fellow traveler
For celebrating each step I take
For stepping right alongside me
And thank you for teaching me
That this body, this heart, and this Spirit together
make a Person who Matters
And although scarred and battered,
I deserve protection, and healing,
And to dream
