I have a love-hate relationship with those holiday letters people send out. On the one hand, I really like hearing how my people’s lives have changed over a year. On the other hand, for some reason, I could never write one myself. I think it’s performance anxiety – a fear that somehow my achievements would disappoint. Silly, I know, but there it is. This year, though, I figured out a way around it. I managed to represent the year’s events abstractly and in the card itself.

I won’t spoil your fun by giving up the goods, but know that I wish you all the most fruitful and loving of upcoming years.
