WTF is this shite??? So the only difference between gifts from her parents and the gifts from Santa were the name on the labels? And both sets of gifts magically arrive at the same time? Very odd setup IMO.
We did the same, but we got nothing from mom and dad at all except one year I remember them getting us a telescope specifically from them.
Actually.. With how much my mom likes recognition for things I'm pretty damn surprised they kept all gifts as only from Santa.

Actually as a kid I unwrapped all the stuff from my mom on Christmas eve. Christmas day was all Santa and unwrapped.

If Santa wraps your gifts, just remember you will need entirely different wrapping paper/ribbon (which you will have to hide) and you'll be doing all of this after they go to bed Christmas Eve OR find a really good hiding spot before then.
This makes zero difference when they are very little. The game gets much harder when they are a little older. So many lies!
My husband and I grew up exactly how you did, so this is what we did with our kids when they still believed. Santa still brings them things because I can't let it go.

Santa wrapped when I was a kid and continued when I was asked to assist in his efforts. Wrapping a candy bar or tube of M&Ms for a stocking stuffer is probably silly but here we are.

Presents from mom and dad were wrapped

When I was a kid, parents wrapped their presents and Santa’s were unwrapped.
My wife insists that all presents be wrapped. Whatever.
The kicker is, my kids don’t seem to notice that mom and dad use the same paper as Santa every year

No. The presents under the tree were from momma while Santa didn’t wrap presents. As a kid I never questioned this logic.
This is the way

Nothing was under the tree for kids. As we got older all that Santa shite was cast aside lol

no. my sister and i each had 3 unwrapped from santa. all wrapped presents were from mom and dad

Both, Mo...err Santa would wrap some and then leave some smaller and of course the larger stuff unwrapped. Kids like unwrapping stuff.

Your mom wraps mine today
Posted on 12/4/22 at 11:01 am to LSUTigahss
Me, no. My wife, yes. So we compromised and Santa wraps them for our kids.

Uh. Yeah. What kind of poor people Santa can’t afford to wrap presents? Don’t give me “he doesn’t have time to wrap them” that dude has an army of elves doing all that shite for his old arse.
Only poor people would come up with some lame arse excuse

The Santa gifts were wrapped. I'd sneak down the hallway in the early morning moonlight and peek at the tree and see wrapped Santa gifts in the moonlight. It was fun and exciting to unwrap the presents that morning. It would have been anti-climactic to walk in and see toys just sitting there.

Nope….my damn wife insists on wrapping the Santa gifts though!!! I told her she can wrap all them she wants but I ain’t wrapping gifts for 2 hrs at 2am on Christmas Eve….frick that!

shite no, man.
They come out of a magic sack. Why would they be wrapped?

This is how I pieced together Santa not being real. My parents are divorced and Santa presents at my moms house were unwrapped and Santa presents at dads were wrapped.

From reading this thread, it's probably what caused the divorce.

No, my shite was out on display like the price is right

Family in OKC: Santa’s were unwrapped, gifts from family were wrapped. No chimney.
Family in Ruston: all presents were wrapped and separated - we each had our own 33-gallon lawn bag full of presents. Because that’s how Santa had to get all of them down the chimney.
