Greeting Card - A fantastic tradition
We've all experienced that fantastic rush. It's the week before your eleventh birthday, the school bell sounds, you hop on your bike, you ride furiously all seventeen blocks home, throw the bike in the dirt, run to the front porch and check the mailbox for that special birthday greeting card from grandma and grandpa that live up North. If it's not there you bow your head, pick up your bike, put in the garage and wait for Mom to mend your spirits. If the card is there, your young hands tremble with delight as you carefully open the envelop so as not to tear the beloved contents.
A greeting card is a long and well-loved tradition dating back generations. From Christmas to birthdays to graduation to valentine's day to a baby's birth a well-timed card has always served as a lovely and simple acknowledgment of momentous occasions in everyone's life.
Most everyone has that special keepsake box full of the sentimental...
