This blog post is far from complete; in fact, it (as of early February) remains in an embryonic state, and not for lack of many hours of work already put into it. That is because, the bulk of the work I have put into this blog post, thus far) has involved scanning handmade greeting cards and related creations my daughter has given me over a span of several decades.

I got the idea for this blog post more than a month ago, after putting in so much effort writing my previous post. My bright idea was that I would focus on scanning the delightful creations mentioned above, then assemble them into a blog post interspersed lighthearted narrative describing them.
