We asked the HuffPost Parents Facebook community to share their 2020 mailers. Keep scrolling for a hilarious (and earnest) sample of holiday cards that sum up this year.

"This card template we used spoke to us as we have personally dealt with many of the items mentioned. For example, we had to evacuate due to a fire in October."

"We are known for sending funny production value Christmas cards to a list that has grown over the years. Past cards include confetti cannons and silly string, recreating 'Home Alone' and making a leg lamp for Christmas Story."

"Despite all the madness, we have come to realize how much we excel at being anti-social. It's like our entire lives have been a dress rehearsal for 2020. Decades of awkward wall-flowering, declining (or not receiving) party invitations, and backing slowly out of rooms have forged us into hardened professional introverts. And this is exactly where we belong. We have arrived. 2020 is our time to shine. We are the kings and queens of absence, coffee-stained pajama pants, Thai food take-out, and toilet paper. Bow down."

"A friend of mine is a photographer and she did a socially distance photo shoot for us earlier in the year, when we were all pretty deep into the stay-at-home mode. I have found that maintaining a sense of humor has been the best way to maintain my sense of peace during this turbulent year!"

"This outtake from our family photos this year completely sums up 2020 for our family, so we knew we had to put it front and center on our holiday card! After nine months of the kids remote learning, while we parents simultaneously work full time from home, we all are doing 'fine.' We are grateful for flexible work schedules, good WiFi and lots of good humor during this crazy time."

"Everything is upside down! When I picked them up I realized that I accidentally forgot to put a picture of myself on the card, but my husband made a cameo. And our family name is in black instead of white so it blends into the blue. Extra funny points for all things going wrong in 2020!"

"I've never sent a holiday card like this, but when it came time I found this photo of our youngest from right after Christmas 2019. I knew we had to use it. We also sent a typical card and only sent this card to people we thought would appreciate it."

"We decided to send it digitally with a reminder that in lieu of sending actual printed cards we supported the #saveourstages campaign. As a family that really enjoys live entertainment, we were bereft and worried about the fate of the live events industry and we thought it was a really nice way to give back to those that have been heavily impacted."

"Couldn't even find a picture of us in 2020, had to repurpose a pic from 2019."

"I went COVID casual with our pics and card. This year was all about casual living, so we wore our COVID attire and took our pics in our backyard. Not funny, but a very real reflection of our year."

"I was over the Rockwell family pictures anyway. Great to embrace a little reality."

"We tried to capture the crazy!"
