Christmas:
We got to open one present on Christmas eve. My dad tells me that animals can talk at midnight on Christmas eve. Santa would bring a present or two, but so would each pet. I’ve even received a present from Madonna! I still get excited to see who my presents are from!
That was always fun!Back in the day when you were little it was important to have all you kids get the same amount of presents. So some were little things to wrap to make sure everyone had a lot to open.Your dad and I got bored of writing “from mom and dad”, during the wrapping frenzy we got slap happy and had fun thinking up famous people to have the present from! Every one knew they were from us!!!
