SENDING out Christmas cards is a tradition that dates back to the Stone Age, when the cavemen painted “Ho Ho Ho, Bro†onto their cave walls (probably).
Since then, the custom has taken many forms — now, some families even send their wishes via YouTube parodies — but there’s one thing most people can count on: kids won’t completely cooperate as planned.
We asked our readers to share photos of their funniest holiday card outtakes, and the submissions act as proof that putting a baby or toddler in front of a “JOY†sign does not prevent tantrums. Oh, the irony.
Not so joyous.
