We never sent Christmas cards out when I was growing up. Our family is tiny so there was no one to send them to. ...So I'm not sure where the idea of sending Christmas cards came from, really. But I can remember as a teenager scraping together cash so I could buy my first pack of cards. They were Hallmark cards (so fancy) with a picture of mugs of cocoa and a heartwarming sentiment inside. Feeling it needed to be "Christmasier", I also handfed the cards through our inkjet printer to add Robert Frost's poem
Yes, Virginia, I still mail Christmas cards.
