My mom sends out those letters every year and sometimes I cringe! She usually has an embarassing verb to describe me, such as "blossoming" or "flourishing." The worst part is that she raised me believing that sending out cards with no picture or letter is a waste of time, so I hardly ever sent any out because I thought I could not do it perfectly enough. Thankfully I'm over that now- I try to include a picture if I haven't seen the people in a while but I haven't attempted a letter in a LOOONNNNNGGGGGG time.
My brother writes the funniest ones, though- they rhyme like a Dr. Suess poem or other funny stuff. One year he wrote it like a detective who was investigating their family activities. This year is was written from how the dog views the family. I thought they were all good.
I like reading my friends' letters if they aren't too braggy! I like the basic information. If they are too braggy, you just know something's got to be wrong and they're in denial.
