Christmas Card "Letters"

<p>

We have a family tradition. At my sister’s house on Christmas Eve, we pass around THE LETTER that her boss (female) sends out. We all laugh until we are in tears at the outrageous bragging and hilarious prose (especially since my sister shares the REAL scoop).

</p>

<p>We do this too, only ours is the letter from dad’s college roommate who retired at age 45 from a CFO position with a major company to spend more time with the (kind of pathetic but always bragged about) children.</p>

<p>One year the letter didn’t come until after Christmas, and we were all very sad. It’s a tradition!</p>

<p>We once received a Christmas letter from a family that included the line:</p>

<p>“Jason is still struggling with issues related to his sexuality.”</p>

<p>(Jason is the husband/father)</p>

<p>Lol, PaperT! That one qualifies as one of the great Christmas letter show stoppers. :)</p>
