Just to start by saying, I am very grateful that people want to buy me and my children presents. We do appreciate it.

Every year I struggle to find presents to buy my children, especially the adult ones. The younger ones are easier as they still play with toys. I have my mil and mother asking me what everyone wants for Christmas and what I want. Constant messages in a group chat about what I want. It takes the fun out of christmas a bit when I'm just searching for something for them to buy me and the children. It's so stressful thinking of presents from me and my mother plus mil. What happened to surprises? I love absolutely everything people buy me. I don't often buy myself anything, so even new socks or some chocolates are nice and I love them. I have 9 children so I have to think of 27 lots of gifts every year and I'm fed up. Anyone else have this?

My Mum would take them to see a show every Christmas, then to Hamleys to choose a toy. This was Christmas and Birthdays. It became a tradition that they all loved, including my Mum.
