FAIRIES

One of my favorite parts about this card is the slogan we created for it: “Fairy Christmas to All and to All a Good Flight.” I’ve always loved a good pun or bon mot. They make me giggle.

I think everyone should have a picture of themselves flying with gossamer wings in their fairy tutu. I can’t describe the feeling, but it makes you believe you have magical powers that you just forgot about until now.

Keith would heartily disagree. He is a good sport and will readily humiliate himself for the sake of humor — but he doesn’t have to enjoy it. So his shaking head and eye rolls aside, this card feels like a gift of whimsy that required great personal sacrifice from a loving husband. I cherish it for that reason as well.

Remember you are filled with Christmas magic!
