    Christmas Letters

    Ok so do you do one to put in your cards?
    You know a generic one?
    What do you put in it?
    I want to do one, but I'm stuck at the start lol.

    I do every year. It is just a generic letter to everyone to keep them in the loop.

    Usually start with something like "can't believe Xmas is here already......"

    I just write a brief summary of any important events (i.e. birthdays, births, awards, promotions, postings (we are a military family). Outline how the kids are going (OK I probably go overboard but my kids are amazing so I share with everyone LOL).

    I also put a couple of small photos of the boys in as well at the bottom of the letter.

    Good luck. Usually once I start, I have trouble stopping so my suggestion is just write whatever comes to mind. You can always edit at the end.
