So you get that personalized Christmas card

And there it is again, the personalized Christmas card. From friends. Usually from friends with a fresh family, where they are cheerfully displayed in front of the tree or just lying on the beach with a cocktail. Or where they have come up with a theme and all are dressed according to that theme. Happiness cannot be contained and that must be showcased. For now. Right now. But we, we think this.

1. Itch.
2. When did they start brainstorming about the theme of the Christmas card?
3. Do they really think we find this super duper fun?
4. When did they even come up with the idea to start with the personalized photo Christmas card?
5. I suddenly have such an incredible itch.
6. How long do you think that shoot lasted?
7. That he really chose her in the end?
8. How old are those kids now? I actually have no idea.
9. Do I see a family week planner hanging in the background?
10. I am getting acid reflux.
11. Big gulps of acid quite a bit.
12. Are they already brainstorming about next year?
13. What should I actually do now?
14. Thank them?
15. Warn them about image damage?
16. Ignore it.
17. I ignore it. Until I am removed from the list.
18. At least they are happy.
19. Amen.
