Every Christmas as a child was spent at my Grandmother’s cottage. There was a fold out sofa in the living room, and I insisted that I was going to sleep beside the fire place (which was actually a real wood burning, chimney bearing fireplace), on that fold out sofa and wait for Santa. Well, I woke up that morning in the “bunk-bed room”, and came out at about 6 A.M. before any one else was awake to the fire burning low, the sun barely rising over the snow covered lake, and stockings stuffed full. It was a magical memory, and thinking back to it, a little part of me still believes that Santa came that night.

We had left our kitties at home overnight, and when we came home, there was a letter to my brother and I from Santa in their pet bed with them!!

One of my Christmas memories includes the year without presents. My parents decided that they would teach us a lesson because we’d been snooping around to uncover presents. They found out about this and surprised us Christmas morning with not one present under the tree. Having no presents was no treat. So my sister and I ate our breakfast and went outside to play in the snow. All I could think about was how all the other children were opening their presents and I would have nothing. It was truly a sad morning. When we came inside from playing, the tree to our surprise the tree now had presents….After all these years I still remember what it’s like to wake up with nothing waiting for you under the tree. I always try to make sure that I remember those who are living this experience and there will be nothing waiting for them under the tree.
probably my earliest memory is of my parents telling us (my twin sister and I) that my brother sneaked out of bed one Christmas Eve to see Santa and was caught by my mother – that was why Santa didn’t leave him any presents that year. My brother stood there too, straight faced, looking sad & nodding. All a big con of course but we believed it all. 🙂

I used to live in Southern Europe as a young child… I have these memories of walking down cobbled streets, holding my mother or father’s hand, all bundled up against the cold; my breath puffing out and frosting around me. The old buildings were draped in garlands and lights and everything seemed so magical. I could hear music being played all around me. And there would street vendors on every corner, roasting chestnuts in their mobile roasters. The sounds of them spinning the roasting wheel, while they sang out their wares; the smell permeating the streets. And my parent would always buy me a $0.50 package, wrapped in a newspaper cone, steam coming off the brown, little nuggets of deliciousness. That is one of my earliest memories and when I think about it… It invokes feelings of safety, security, wonder and the magic of the season.

My earliest Christmas memory was when I was about 4 years old – I remember being at my Grandma’s house with all of my aunts, uncles, and cousins.
My earliest memory is Christmas with all my cousins, and a big pile of presents under the tree.
One of my earliest memories was watching my great grandmother set up a little Christmas tree in her bedroom. We always had a big tree in our living room but my great grandmother had her special little tree in her bedroom. She passed away when she was 96, I was 12. I was given her little tree when she passed away. That was 36 years ago. Every year I would set it up but now it is so fragile, the needles are falling off. I still have it in the original box packed safely away. Merry Christmas everyone.
Every year for Christmas from when I was one until I think I was 13 or 14, I always got a porcelain doll.
my earliest Christmas memory has to be when I was 4. I got up really early before anyone, and checked out everbody’s stockings and took the stuff I wanted to hide under my pillow. couldn’t understand how anyone knew what Santa had put in the stocking, when I was the first one up.

I still have the doll she will be 53 this year.

Then, after dinner and clean up, we’d put the “Shuffle Curl” game on the Ping Pong table and have a family tournament til all hours of the night 🙂
