 When Christmas cards came to our house, my mother taped them onto the door frames of the house. She started with the three doors leading into the kitchen and branched over to the living room. Did your family do this? As a boy growing up, I thought everyone put Christmas cards on their door frames. But later I learned that we were a little unusual. The point of the cards was to brighten up the old farmhouse and also to remind us that we were part of a very large circle of family. I remember reading these cards and asking who this or that person was.
