Family Letter, abridged


This year, our family sent out an "Easter Letter" rather than the customary Christmas family letter. I could say that we didn't want to get lost in the shuffle of the busyness of the season; or maybe we wanted to command more of your attention. The truth of the matter is that we weren't all together until after Christmas for a family picture. And if I can whittle down some of the demands of the Christmas season, I'll gladly do it.


If you didn't get a letter, let me know. The picture was drawn by my son for the front of the card.
