Christmas Stocking

**
When I was little there my stocking would hang full of presents for me. Santa again made me proud. Dig until my arm was gone.
**
Mom and dad would take pictures of us as we’d open up our stuff. Wrapping paper everywhere. Christmas wasn't the same.
**
Mom wasn't around no stockings hung full for us. No one was smiling and no gifts under the tree, always have my memories.
