I received this white pair of go go boots!!!! I danced until I had blisters! I was under 5 and knew Santa had brought them just for me.
We were poor so our stockings always had oranges and nuts in them.
The beauty and fascinating thought that I could go to sleep and awake to gifts by the tree and the cookies were gone always amazed me.
Christmas always facinated me no matter how broke my mom was we had Christmas.
As a grown woman she shared with me that she borrowed from a small life insurance policy just to make sure her babies were happy.
Magical time of the year even now but this time I'm blessed and understand what it feels like to be broke etc... So I always feed, donate and play Santa for a family I know in need!
If I can make someone's life magical for a small bit so be it!
