Reel #16 Clip #3. Christmas, 1962
Another sweet Christmas clip showing how studied we’ve become about opening gifts with age. For example, Peter opens his big gift with Sara saying something funny to Peter while touching his arm. Sara was born in August before Peter’s first birthday in October, making them Irish Twins — a term of ridicule toward Irish emigrants in the 19th century for their lack of birth control — but both boasted of their historic moniker and of being the same age for 25 days every year. We miss them both, double-time.
