These card are simple to easy to send, eco friendly, have the advantage of being able to be personalised to one’s preference and most importantly they are a time saver.

I became a fun of using eCards after a time when I almost embarrassed my dad and myself for not sending a wish you well or quick recovery card to my young son after he was injured in a school soccer game. It was when my entire family had visited my home to see how the little boy was doing and I had tried reasoning how my dad had not said anything to me ever since my son got injured yet I was sure he knew. Since I had taken a week off from work, I barely checked my email and so I did not notice the messages sent by loved ones. The day he arrived, he noticed that I was mad at him but he could not understand why. As we ate dinner, everyone was joyful for coming together even my little boy but I was giving my old man the eye, the one you give someone who you feel you have a lot to say to. Before I thought of asking him about it, a call came in from work as some of my colleagues wanted to say hi. They also alerted me to check my email and it was while doing that I noticed a handful of eCards from people including dads. He had even sent one for me which was for my birthday that was in the same week. After talking about it, we all laughed and enjoyed the rest of the evening.
