Yes. An essay is a bit much and many times include details nobody cares about. But I have sent out notes with Xmas cards with no more than 2 or 3 sentences about each of the 4 of us.

We all tend to lose touch with people in our lives that we care about. Properly written, I welcome them. I could care less about Aunt Sally's wart.

It's one thing to include a personalized note or something to a particular person, but the generic full page bragathon to everyone is what I detest.

Naw, I don't. Don't even send Christmas cards, I'm too lazy.
The one thing I do always find a bit odd is when I get a Christmas card that features a couple's dog or cat like it's their kid. Especially when it's all dressed up in Santa clothes with the pet's name underneath.
That one usually makes me groan.
