I just mailed my Christmas cards out for 2016.
People sometimes ask me why I still do this..."It's so old-fashioned", they say.
Well, my mama used to mail out cards every year. She saw it as a way of keeping in touch with friends and family.
She used to take us to "Super X Drugs" and made a big deal out of selecting the "right" cards to send. We never had a lot of money, but she always budgeted enough for Christmas cards...
To this day, I still select and mail what I think is "the right cards" to my friends and family.
Some years I even get creative and design my own cards.
Family and tradition is very important to me. I truly believe that the dissolution of the family bond is what's causing the troubles in some of our neighborhoods.
The world needs more Christmas cards! If you can't buy them, make them.
