...SIGH... "What's wrong, Mom?" "I hate to say it, Penny, but the holidays make me a nervous wreck!" "I have so much to do! I have so many gifts to shop for and wrap!" "The holidays aren't supposed to make you a nervous wreck! They're supposed to make you happy!" "I'd rather not have any presents at all than to see you upset!" "I know I gave you a long Christmas list, but please don't buy me another thing! Whatever you got me so far is enough, OK?" "Thank you, Penny! I feel better already!" "Good!" "Besides, Santa will bring me all the other stuff! He always does!"
