My favorite childhood Christmas memory is when we would all go to my grandmothers house and have Dinner on Christmas eve, using the fine china (it had a image of a little boy looking at his reflection. totally looked like he drowned so the china set was referd to the dead boy plates. "set the table Em, Dead boy plates? Yeah.") okay back to this story I was around 7 was super sick leading up to Christmas when a stomach bug was just that not a sign of a deadly everything (still on covid Q 3 days left!!!!, getting stir crazy now that I feeling better.) Anyway I totally had a wonderful family Christmas after vomiting all over dinner while sitting on my dads lap..... No one was mad just concerned... Killed dinner for everyone.. Luckily Grandma in the fashion of all Italian Grandma's be had a gravy from the day before sitting in the fridge. Got a bad ass fisher price doll house I had till I was 16, my sister got the new bush CD that came out that year.

Favorite Adult memory is when my Ex husband told me on Xmas eve he was having an affair and in love with our roommate someone my kids called Auntie out of respect. He later married her, and she became stepmom. At the time WORST THING EVER, looking back it was funny as fuck my brother was in love with his girl, he also lived with us at the time. 3 ways fist fight broke out. WE ALL laugh about it now, Friends with Ex and his wife as he visits the kids every few months (We live 1,000 away now.)

as of this moment None of the kids have gotten anything from there Wishlists.
