She was a new Mom, isolated at home in a small Western town during a pandemic, desperate to have something to look forward to every day. I was happy to add her to my Christmas mailing list and now send her a card and our family newsletter every year. Very few people still send Christmas cards in the mail. I think that's sad. There's something special about getting a card in the mail, especially at this time of the year. Even though the number of cards we get each year is dwindling, I look forward with anticipation to reading each card and note, seeing the kids' school photos or family holiday photo, and catching up on all the news from friends who live far away who aren't on social media. This week's #HappyAct is to kick it old school and send a traditional Christmas card. It might just make someone's day. Comment Like You can also reply to this email to leave a comment.
