The Stanley family makes a family Christmas card that captures the essence of parenting
As mentioned, the tradition started 8 years ago when the dad Jonathan and the mom Jessica wanted to make a Christmas card with their then 1-year-old son Jackson. But it was actually very hard to make it perfectly festive.
In a previous interview, the family said “We laughed so hard at how bad the photos were that we decided just to send them out as is and our family loved it. From there the tradition was born – instead of trying to send perfect cards, we would send something that represented the chaos of parenting.”
