Last week the Christmas tree went up, and this week the Christmas cards get mailed!! It's all a part of the Christmas season in America and throughout the world. It is the preparation to my favorite holiday, Christmas!

Even though writing a Christmas card is a lot of work and is very time consuming, which is why many young and busy people don't do it anymore, I won't give it up. I feel it is a perfect way to stay "connected" to the family and friends we do not see often. People we plan to see over the holidays, we can just hand a pretty card to them when we say "Merry Christmas, Happy New Year"!! However, for those we won't see, I think it is important to write a short letter to catch up a little on the year and tell them you are thinking of them and miss them and wish them well through the season and the coming New Year!

The Christmas cards we receive make for pretty decoration when put on display. I would put them out on a table like the picture shows or sometimes hang them from a pretty colored festive decorative cord strung in a doorway or someplace in my home!

If you haven't tried sending out a holiday card, you may want to try sending a few cards out this year. I guarantee that it will make whoever you send it to "smile"!!
