She has a point. My birthday is just far enough between Thanksgiving and Christmas that I don’t get combo presents. (Ooh! I’ll be 59 in a couple of days.)
Mom’s birthday was on the 23rd. Dad always made a point of having a separate, big family party for her on the day. After the birthday festivities were done, the tree went up and was decorated.
December 24th is always special to me, because it’s the anniversary of my last day of work before my retirement began many years ago. Best Christmas present ever!
My SIL’s BD is on December 15th. I think I finally figured out the solution to mailing her presents. Wrap Christmas on the bottom with the Christmas card on top of that, and her birthday presents wrapped appropriately with a BD card on the top. One stop mailing! :)

That’s a great attitude.
It’s good to see Kate’s friends again.

One of my nephews was born just before midnight on Christmas Eve. So he always got a party on Christmas Eve and then CHRISTMAS!

Mine’s the 26th. And no, I never got birthday presents. I’ve never had to go to school or work on my birthday though.
