When I was a sophomore in high school, a friend of mine told me her mom always hides her Christmas presents around the house, and if she finds them before December 25th, she gets to open the gifts and her mom will go and buy her more.
That does NOT happen at my house.
Where do the gifts hide at my house? Santa definitely does not bring them. My parents never raised me to believe in Santa, and I'm okay with that. I realized at a young age the effort and work that my parents put into my Christmas gifts. I made the mistake of telling my cousins that Santa wasn't real and they cried. They were ages six and eight. I was sixteen. Anyways, that takes care of Santa. So if Santa doesn't bring the gifts and my parents don't hide them all over the house, where are they?
I know exactly where they are. My parents keep all of my sisters' and my presents in their bedroom and closet. If I wanted to I could waltz right in there and look at what they have bought for us. However, I would never, ever, do that. It would ruin Christmas morning!
I also know that my mom keeps our Christmas lists in her purse, she marks stuff off of them and writes on them. I try to steal those lists every time I am with her. I would never read them though... I just like to mess with her.
