Christmas Eve, we were just about ready.
The two younger boys brought up a little something special they’d made for their big brother. Something they thought maybe Santa would like to add to his stocking.
And when their brother saw his stocking on Christmas morning? Priceless!
Ah, the many joys of siblings…
he's laughing but I do believe I see a trace of worry under those big smiles .. !! ; )
I have three older brothers (12, 11 and 8 years older). During their adolescent years they discovered Playboy. My mom was not pleased with this new "secret" discovery, but she decided to ignore it….until Christmas.
She took the covers of some Playboys, pasted them over some Family Circle magazines, and put them in each boy's stocking.
The look on their faces when they saw their stockings…. and then the look on their faces as they furiously thumbed through the magazines… I think that was my mom's favorite Christmas. 🙂
