Although not a child (we admitedly drew the santa thing out longer than most) I remember opening all my pressies when I was about 18 and got everything I wanted.. Later on in the day, my mum told me she had found another pressie for me. It was new bed sheets which I loved but had to point out tat she had got the wrong size.. she told me to go and look in the garage and there was the most smashing new double bed! I had been nagging her for ages about getting a new one... it was a lovely surprise!
My mum ALWAYS did that... At some point on xmas day or evening.. she would appear with an other couple of presents claiming she had "forgotten" about one each for us both!
