Generally I have a terrible memory, but last Christmas was the most memorable present wise.
I recieved rosepetals from my husband..some other stuff too, but I only remember the rosepetals....
The sheets and napkins I asked for from the ILs...and a way cool breadbasket with warming stone from my brother in law.
On the one hand that is a very materialistic post, but I thought of it because I try to get gifts that are useful, fun, and not junk...remembering the gifts a year later, and hopefully more is a goal of mine when I give. I want to give presents that will be remembered and loved. and bring a smile the day of unwrapping. Trouble is I am not to good at it! But I guess having a goal to aim for is better than nothing.
(On a non-materialistic note my strongest memory is my son opening his game, and playing it, for hours....we aim to make time for the kids to play with the gifts...no rush to open the next one, I don't care if it takes all year.)
A most memorable Christmas

Don't worry though. The worst is already over.
