"We were always revising our Christmas lists until the writing was almost illegible. This was not the list to Santa. This was for the exchange between siblings. Our gifts to each other might be nothing more than an hanky or a package of gum, but Christmas wouldn't be the same if we didn't have something under the tree for each other. Unfortunately, making suggestions often resulted in a heated argument. This sent Mother into a long discussion on the true meaning of Christmas, which I have to admint was completely lost on squabbling children."
