We use to put out shoes, and wish our feet were bigger. I think it's a German thing. Then we got my Dad's socks too until my sister was born. My brother and I would make smelly jokes and eat the chocolate at the bottom anyway. Little squares of chocolate I can't find anymore. Great story

Good Lord! Sounds like it's a family tradition 😅

So much love wrapped up in one present. You sure had a great mum!

Oh and by the way, great illustrations as always.

Hilarious 😂😂 Christmas stockings aren’t really popular in Romania. All the presents are just bundled on top of each other underneath the Christmas tree.
