Slow Down

I really love Christmas cards, but rarely send them out.  I guess it is because I like to do them the old fashioned way {and by old fashioned, I mean the way people did it 10 or so years ago}: buy a box of cards, write a tiny note to each recipient, include a family photo, and hand address them...and wow, that takes a long time!  Amidst the hustle and bustle of shopping, baking, making gifts, decorating, and the million other things I {and I'm guessing you} do this time of year, Christmas cards often get crossed off the list.

But this year, I'm going to slow down send them {even if it is the last time!}.  I just might have to spend every night this week writing them, but I'm okay with that.  I think hope that the attention to detail will make the recipients feel a little bit loved {since they are}, just like I felt when I received a handmade Christmas card last week.  Are you doing anything to slow down and enjoy the Christmas season?
