My best Christmas memory would be the times when I couldn't sleep because of the excitement and impatience to wait for the morning. I don't even know how my parents made that time so special. We've never been one of those wealthy families, we lived OK. But my mother and father still somehow managed to get us what we (me and my sisters) wanted.
Sadly, this feeling fades away more and more every year. But I'm still very thankful to my Mom and my Dad.
