The 2024 Christmas Card Letter
I love getting Christmas cards. I appreciate the generic. It’s nice to know someone thinks enough of me to address an envelope and write a little something, even if just “Miss you” or “Let’s get together in the new year.” I really like cards… Continue Reading “The 2024 Christmas Card Letter”
