Who decided that around Christmas everyone is supposed to go out and get photos of their kids taken, and then put those photos into some red holly-themed border, and send them out to everyone they know. Why do people do this?
It's a perfectly nice thing to do. I'm not complaining, really. It's interesting to see how families grow up over the years, I suppose. But why specifically at Christmas?
It's interesting to observe how people handle it. Some take pictures all in khaki and white on the beach in July to use for their Christmas cards. Some have their kids posed in front of the tree. Some are all dressed up, and some are just naturally posed. Some parents are in the photos with the kids, and some just send their kids.
It's just one of those things that I'm skeptical of simply because SO many people do it, and do it the same way. What if a family were to decide one year that they don't want to? Would they be judged? Would other families think something was going on with them, that they couldn't get it together to send their cards? Then rumors would fly, maybe?
It's just a little absurd.
