Sarah Jessica Parker’s Christmas Cards Dilemma

Christmas cards from Sarah Jessica Parker and the Sex and the City gals

Forget Matthew, Sarah Jessica Parker should just send Chrismtas cards from her and her gal friends...and of course I'm referring to Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the name, Sarah Jessica Parker? I’ll bet it’s not Christmas cards, but maybe it should be! I know, you probably think I’m crazy, since that’s not even close to what you were thinking. You were probably thinking about her flowing mane of gorgeous blonde hair or her stunning designer gowns which showcase SJP’s nearly perfect figure (and which earned her the Fashionista label). Maybe you think of her fabulous and enormously successful HBO dramedy, Sex and the City, or the equally fabulous and successful SATC movie and recently released sequel. Perhaps you think of her marriage to actor Matthew Broderick which resulted in their adorable six year old son, James Wilkie and their recently born twins.

From all outward appearances, it would seem that SJP lives a perfectly wonderful, glamorous, stress-free life. Ah, but just a minute please. Appearances can be deceiving, and if you think not, you would be wrong, so wrong! While Sarah Jessica does seem to have it all and do it all with ease, style and panache, there are two little words that may just cause our girl to lose her cool. What are these two little words, you ask. Well, I’m about to tell you and believe me, you will be surprised, if not downright shocked (and no, it’s not Mr. Big)! The two little words are “Christmas cards.” I know, who wouldda thunk? But it might possibly be the one thing SJP loses the most sleep over come Christmas time. Let me explain.

For all his wonderful qualities, Sarah Jessica’s hubby, Matthew, is not exactly Mr. Christmas spirit. Early each December, as soon as the first Christmas cards arrive at the Broderick-Parker home, Matthew supposedly starts freaking out about Christmas. He believes that it’s just a lot of work. I suppose if it were up to him, he would just skip the whole thing. Therein is SJP’S dilemma. Even though she is half Jewish and considers herself “culturally Jewish,” her large blended family of step and half-siblings are not Jewish. They absolutely love Christmas and really enjoy holiday get-togethers. They love to celebrate with festive food and family-centric Christmas traditions and so does Sarah Jessica. It must be tough for her to get in the spirit with “Scrooge” as her partner. And so we see her dilemma. On the one hand, she loves hubby and wants him to be happy. On the other hand, she loves her family and all the Christmas festivities. She also probably doesn’t want their son to miss out on all the fun. So what’s a girl to do? I’ll tell you exactly what she should do.

This year she should re-think her handling of the holiday season. Early in December, when SJP and family receive their first Christmas cards in the mail, Sarah Jessica should nip the problem in the bud before hubby has a chance to start his whining. SJP could make it easy on herself by telling her hubby that she’ll promise to tone down the celebrating this Christmas. She should say that she’ll keep it simple…just send really nice celebrity Christmas cards to all their friends and family and be done with it. Or not! Why, after all, should she give in to his bah humbug attitude? Carrie Bradshaw would never do that! Maybe she should just send hubby on an extended vacation during the holiday season! That way they could both enjoy themselves! Merry Christmas, SJP! Relax, kick back and enjoy. By the way, did you get my Christmas card yet?
