Re: Christmas gift giving customs, Christmas present gift exchanges

I have to add, I never missed our special 'Christmas night at Mom's' house except for one time when I made a new tradition. I gave birth to my oldest son on Christmas morning 29 years ago and since then it's been a tradition to not only celebrate Christmas but his b-day as well.

Wow, you posted this a year ago and I just now read it. Sometimes it really is great when you bump up a thread.

Anyways, to answer your question....he never 'lost' out. I always made sure when he was growing up that he received birthday presents wrapped in b-day paper with a b-day card and he also had a b-day cake with candles and we all sung Happy Birthday to him. Usually we did this at noon so it was like his special time of the day.

We still give him separate presents with a cake, usually after our Christmas meal.

Re: Christmas gift giving customs, Christmas present gift exchanges

We never even used to put up our tree until Christmas Eve, then we'd take it down New Year's Day..
