I dont think she even looked at the sizes. My brother & sister-in-law brought us both books which neither of us will read as its something were not really intrested in. Fortunately we got great gifts from everyone else. |
My mother gets me really nice clothes for Christmas, a few pieces, but I swear she NEVER gets the size right. My whole life she has always viewed me as heavier than I am. She got me one sweater in an XL but a Large would have worked and another sweater in a Large when a Medium would have fit better! LOL I'm not offended or upset or anything, I just wish she would see that I'm not as heavy as she seems to think all the time!
