Hello Chris Ann - it seems you have found what "moves" you this season and it is being explored with thoughts, words and intentions.  Now, off to lots more handwriting of those many cards, stuffing the envelopes and addressing each.  Onward Blitzen!

Chris Ann,

It is interesting how certain messages come to us from nowhere, and good for you for sharing that.  A

Hi Chris Ann Cleland what a nice post .... that's exactly what the spirit of Christmas is, especially during these very troubling times.... you always do such a nice job.... your clients will be touched when they read your one liner.... very powerful AND memorable!!!  

Hi Chris Ann Cleland love that you're in the Christmas Spirit! I think it's even more important this year to write happy notes to clients and friends.  We all need more love and kindness!

Hi Chris Ann,  Although we have attempted recently to get out Christmas cards to all our friends, family, and clients.  It seems that each year the list is whittled down a little further.  This year, we decided to increase the number of cards we are sending out.  We will also be adding a personal note.  Thanks for sharing this great post.

I think warmth and expressions of caring are greatly appreciated, especially this year. Nice job, Chris Ann

Hi Chris Ann- While some might not be in the spirit of the holidays, you, thank goodness, are feeling it, and sharing it via your cards!!! This is the kind of thing that lifts our spirits. 

For many years, I sent out calendars this time of year!  I found the type that were a holiday card that opened up to be a calendar.

Good morning, Chris Ann... I've sent out personal Christmas Cards to my best clients for more years than I can count. Of course, that's on top of the cards I send out to friends and family.We easily send out over 200 cards each Christmas. 

Chris Ann Cleland - I really enjoyed reading your blog post. I'm glad you found inspiration with each personal note to clients, family, and friends. I kept up this tradition since I was a kid and never stopped sending cards to my immediate family, good friends, and clients too. As the years go by, they always mention back to me, how much they appreciated my personal notes and/or messages to them. I hope you keep that spirit of Christmas alive! It suits your personality.  

I have never been worried about putting something personal in a note to a past client but it does make me a bit sad when I get crickets back, haha.

The recipients of your cards will be extra warm this year. In their hearts.

If the photo is indicative, I too send out Holiday greetings with a magnet calendar.  Past clients and potentials are all recipients and some really do remember you for them

Hi Chris Ann Cleland - I think this year has taught us to be grateful for those in our lives and to show it.

Chris Ann Cleland  To say it has been emotional is so true - what a year -glad
