Syllable stress - short sentences

Hi,
I am trying to figure the correct syllables to stress in the following phrases. I think the bold face syllables need to be stressed. Could you please check them?

Good morning.
Good afternoon.
Excuse me.
Take care.
Be careful.
Goodbye.
Thank you.


You're welcome.


Thanks,
MG.

ex cuse and care ful and wel come. I wouldn't stress both syllables in these two-syllable words. Otherwise, perfect.
