When we were kids, my two sisters and and I would get a load of toys on Christmas morning. My parents weren't the type to to spoil us, except for Christmas. We'd go running into the living room, and we'd have our own section just loaded with toys. It looked like a toy store, lol.
We also had wrapped gifts under the tree, from my "parents" lol, as well as from other relatives, and a few more from Santa. As we got older, we got less gifts that were much more expensive. That's when my mother started wrapping all of our gifts.

Some were wrapped, some weren't. Santa always got me a Garfield Calendar and it was never wrapped.

Mine were always wrapped too, and marked from Santa, and it always was wrapped in the same paper we "just happened to have" in the Christmas decorations closet, and Santa's handwriting always looked so much like my mom or dad's distinctive handwriting. I never suspected though...I really wanted to believe.

I received gifts from "Santa" and also from "Mrs. Claus." I remember that gift to this day. It was a sweater and I bragged how Mrs. Santa Claus had made me a gift and no other classmate had received one from her. Na na na na na na...
Presents were always wrapped.

The gifts that I got from my parents were always wrapped, but the presents that I got from "Santa" weren't wrapped they just had little tags on them that said "From: Santa"

All presents must be wrapped. It's the law!

The presents from Santa were never wrapped when I was a kid. But I always wrapped my sons stuff, unless it was something big or something that needed a lot of assembly.

Hey I still believe. And it wasn't coincidence, my parents said they always helped Santa because he was usually running behind schedule by the time he got to our house. Wasn't that nice of them?

My mom didnt wrap our presents. That would have been a lot of paper for five kids.
