Humans of the Dub: End of Year Traditions
Humans of the Dub: End of Year Traditions
January 6, 2021

I have a sister, I like to spoil her, and it’s a great time to give back to my parents. As kids we couldn’t give our parents things and now that I’m more mature and can afford things, I like to show my appreciation for them by making it a nice Christmas.
