My mom was a nurse and used to have to work Christmas day every other year. Since she still wanted to see us open our presents, she’d “ask Santa to make us the first stop.” So we’d open presents at like 8 PM on Christmas Eve after we came home from church. We totally bought it too.

It is really sad like that. I remember a friend stayed with us over Christmas when he was 7, and he didn’t understand why Santa gave us more. I didn’t get what he meant until I came over for the first time. Christ, Meryck, I am so sorry that that is your situation.
