For years Rob and I have discussed our desire to send out holiday cards to family and friends. We really enjoy receiving cards each year and appreciate the thought and effort behind them. But the holidays would creep up and I never got my act together in time to send anything out. After Siena was born I felt a more pressing need to spread holiday cheer by way of a card with a cute baby pic and cliched if not clever festive phrase. But sending holiday cards was my lowest priority just two months after Siena was born. She was still in a harness to correct her hip dysplasia and we were still going back and forth to the doctors to check her abnormal kidneys. I was still very much wearing pregnancy pants and barely on the other side of severe baby blues. So the holidays came and went without our personal greeting. This year should have been different but as the holidays approached I had a card idea in mind I could not shake but also could not execute. Instead of scrambling for a back up plan I let the holidays come and go and with each card containing a little cutie that slid through our mail slot I was hit with a slight pang of guilt and regret. I decided to ask a photo savvy friend to help with my card idea even though it's too late to make the 2013 season. Although the card never reached your door know our sentiments and wishes remain for a happy and healthy new year and lots of love your way!
XO,
Lia, Rob and Siena Kate
P.S. My New Years resolution is to get a head start on holiday cards for 2014.
