As much as my Mom loves "updated" pictures of me and my brother for Christmas, nothing scares me more than having to stand next to a tree and act happy. It isn't that I am not happy or that I don't want to make my Mom's Christmas wish come true, it is just that I hate posing for pictures. It feels so fake to me. I would much rather hang out at a family gathering, laugh, smile and talk all while some impartial observer takes candid photos of the us doing what we do best, being a family.
