The tradition of the Christmas letter has always appealed to the side of me who likes to write; but the side of me who detests the idea of expecting my friends to read several pages of what we and our children did all year (like they really care), makes me nauseous. This year, I think I've found a compromise: I've written a Christmas letter in the form of a poem, stuck in a little humor, and kept it brief. In case that doesn't work, maybe I should include a note relieving its recipients of all obligation for having to read it. Here 'tis. (Click on poem for a version large enough to read--if you really want to read it.)
