I was the photo person in my family too, moms tend to be that way. But what prevented you from taking a holiday family picture? Could you take that role from now on, and don't relinquish something that matters to you, to someone else's control?

And don't sweat that it's a different family picture than in the old days, record what IS. A lot of family pictures that make it into the beautiful scrapbooks are fakey. Get your phone out and snap one of your kids today and stick it on the fridge labeled Easter 2013. Close enough. It will show your kids that they don't have to be perfect children in a perfect family to be worth celebrating in a picture on the fridge.
