Mom was notorious for forgetting to put out a couple gifts. During gift opening, she'd inevitably be mumbling to herself,"Now WHERE are those jeans I got for __________?" Later in the day, maybe the day after Christmas, she'd find it and hand it over to whoever had unknowingly been "shorted". I always wondered how in the world she could misplace the gifts so often. However, after a couple years of buying gifts for three children, I just want to tell her, "I finally understand, Mom, I finally understand."

The twelve days of Christmas last all the way till January 6th. I know a family that opens a present a day for twelve days (give or take)so that all they have to find for the 25th is one per person!
Very sweet story, Denise. What a lovely small tribute to your mom.
