. . . cards . . .

. . . i can't remember
the last time
i sent out christmas cards . . .
{shame on me}
. . . but i will tell you
it's been long enough
that we've been
crossed off most peoples' lists . . .
. . . so far, this year,
we've received
like seven cards or so . . .
{and that includes one thanksgiving card
and a graduation announcement}
. . . which made it even more special
when this one
arrived in our mailbox . . .

. . . eleven grandsons
and five granddaughters . . .
. . . boy overload must be
a romney thing . . .
. . . i feel your pain, ann! . . .
{but seriously . . .
how cute is that little girl on mitt's lap?}
{also . . . hydrangeas!!!}

. . . what a lovely family . . .

. . . and a heartfelt sentiment . . .
{with all "holiday" bases covered}

. . . and now i know the secret . . .
. . . i'd probably send cards out, too . . .
. . . if only i had a committee . . .

. . . side note:
there's another debate tonight . . .
. . . on fox news . . .
. . . america needs mitt . . .
{not newt}

Kelley just asked me why I don't send out Christmas cards...I should have told her I "need a committee" too. (and a recent family picture with everyone in it...maybe next year!)
