For children, Christmas is a time when they get to see their whole family reunited, who are, in turn, excited to see them growing up.
It’s a time when positive memories are formed in the child’s development and gives the season a sense of importance to look forward to during the year.
Every family celebrates Christmas differently. Maybe they open presents on Christmas Eve or wait until Christmas day.
But for John Dorroh, his Christmas tradition was seeing his mom leave in a hurry on Christmas eve.
For years without fail, John’s mother would leave in a rush on Christmas eve, promising to return in a few hours.
Sue never gave a reason for what she was doing, which was a mystery to the family.
John’s family never questioned what his mother was up to, as she would return within a few hours as promised.
But he can’t forget how she would grab her car keys and drive off.
John and his family never understood what was happening. His mother always made sure to buy everyone’s presents on time.
What was she doing if she wasn’t going out to buy last-minute gifts for the family?
