Four stand out in memory:
Christmas 1967: Raggedy Ann AND Andy, with two alternate sets of outfits my mother made for them but which I originally believed were made by Mrs. Claus.
Christmas 1973: A stereo receiver, speakers and turntable, along with a psychedelic Janis Joplin poster and her greatest hits album. My life as a counter-culture 12-year-old was complete.
Christmas 1982: An engagement ring and marriage proposal from my husband
Christmas 2000: The house we currently live in
