My mom always kept a journal of Christmas gifts. I think she used to document everything (not only her gifts), but I have no clue where the journals are. Even if I did, I never could read her handwriting, LOL! I don't think she still does, since it's usually down to me and the parents, and honestly, I think they already know each other's gifts long before they're opened. When we were kids, we were so certain we would never forget a single gift. No it's hard to remember specifically who gave what gifts on what years. I guess it really is the thought that counts?
