I agree!
But, I honestly have to say that I do like this interpretation, which would agree with Margie and Bratti's reference she found.

The use of XOXO goes back to the use of an X or cross, which was considered as good as a sworn oath in times before most people could write and therefore used the X in the same way a signature is used today — a mark of one's word. An X at the end of a letter or document was often kissed as a seal of honesty, in much the same way one would kiss a Bible or kiss the fingers after making the sign of the Christian cross. Thus the X came to represent a kiss in modern times.

Still it stands to reason that it needs to follow an order. - XOXO - Hugs and Kisses.
If they had started out with OXOX - Hugs and Kisses, I wouldn't argue the point.
