Earliest christmas memories!

Merry Christmas and a very happy new year to everyone. my earliest memories of this day came rushing to me yesterday. I remember my mother to disguise as Santa and hid something under my pillow (gifts etc) just shortly before I used to wakeup, so that I would be surprised the morning that it was from Santa himself. The joy and feel of that moment of excitement and the ignorance of truth as a child was priceless.

Same to you. All of us face some experiences like this in our childhood. I think many parents do that.

"Santa Claus" used to fill our long socks that were put at the bottom of the bed, They would always contain a mandarin orange and a Cox's Orange Pippin apple along with a few small things. We never put out food for father Xmas as I believe some people do

I can remember that my parents used to put our presents under the tree and we used to surreptitiously feel them trying to guess what we would be getting!
