I think one of my favorite memories was when Cowboy was 3 and he just couldn't wait for Christmas Day. I was wrapping gifts in the dining room and went to take a pile in to place under the tree and there sat Cowboy with a bunch of presents (none of them his) and wrapping paper all over the room. I think he would have kept going until he found a toy to play with lol
My favourite Christmas memories where when my son was a child because we spent the holiday all together. We still stay together, but at the desk lots of people are missing... my husband, my parents and relatives....

My favorite memories are from when my children were little{ 4 and 5 and so }.
We would always put the tree up and the lights on to help Santa out. Christmas morning they would get up and eat their breakfast before entering the rooms where the tree and presents were. They would run into the rooms and be extremely excited. The son would open one at a time and play with it for a while before opening the next one.

MY FAVORITE CHRISTMAS MEMORY IS OF ME AND MY SIBLINGS SURROUNDING OUR MOTHER'S HOSPITAL BEDSIDE ON CHRISTMAS DAY 1992,
AND SEEING HER WAKE UP, AND OPEN HER EYES, AND SMILE FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE
FALLING INTO A COMA, FOLLOWING A MASSIVE STROKE ON OCTOBER 31, OF THAT SAME YEAR.
THE DOCTORS HAD SAID "SHE WOULDN'T SURVIVE THE NIGHT," AND IF SHE DID,
SHE WOULD PROBABLY BE BRAIN-DEAD BECAUSE HER BLEED WAS SO LARGE!
AND THE MIRACLE WAS, NOT ONLY DID OUR WONDERFUL MOTHER SURVIVE, SHE WOKE UP,
AND RECOGNIZED ALL TWELVE OF US (HER KIDS) AND SMILED! WHAT A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE THAT WAS!
THE GOOD LORD BLESSED MY MAMA, TO LIVE FOR ALMOST 10 MORE YEARS, AT HOME WITH US,
BEFORE SHE PASSED AWAY IN HER SLEEP FEB, 23 2001...
10 DAYS BEFORE HER 70TH BIRTHDAY!
