This is why parents keep the Santa Claus legend going; otherwise, you dangle brightly wrapped presents under the tree for days – but tell them no – and you get this.
My family has had a long tradition of opening one present on Christmas Eve. The parents choose which one, usually a small one that won’t spoil the surprise of the presents the child will receive in the morning. We think of it as a mixing of the shepherds coming at night and the wise men bringing gifts.

And then, Nancy realized Christmas isn’t just about getting presents. It’s about so much more, especially corporate profitability.
