That looks so cozy! I'll jsut print it out and hang it up for my tree :) Since my birthday is Dec 10 my mother worked hard at making sure I didn't get cheated so the tree went up then, and slowly over two weeks presents would appear under the tree so I could shake them and such. LIkewise, mine for her and my father and other kind would get placed there also. But usually the KEY present was hidden away til Christmas eve. I'm pretty sure Santa Clause was always thought of as a figure of speech at home. annsan
