Christmas is known to be one of the most awaited celebrations that, despite providing people with lots of joy, also tends to stress people out a bit. Everyone knows that preparing for the winter holidays takes a lot of time and attention: decorating one’s house, finding a perfect Christmas tree, thinking of what dishes to prepare, and, of course, buying gifts. Finding a perfect present very often becomes one of the main “struggles” for those who want to surprise their loved ones, especially when there is not so much time for that. What we often forget is that there is a way out of this situation, and that's creating something by ourselves. At least that is what TikTok user @feather and his sister decided to do for their mom.

This TikTok user decided to share what he and his sister have been gifting to their mom every year for Christmas. It all started 11 years ago when the siblings needed a “last-minute joke gift”, so they created an awkward yet funny portrait of the two of them. The present seemed to be a successful one because now they surprise their mom with a new portrait every year.

@feather, whose real name is Kyle, is an artist and producer who also likes to share moments of his life on TikTok. His original video showing all of the 11 pictures that were taken over the years has gained 2.1 million views on the social media platform. Seeing how engaged and intrigued people were by this video, the man also shared an update of another picture he and his sister created for their mom. It was said that their mom got married this year, so to celebrate this, they made her another portrait that you can see here. The picture portrays the siblings posing outside with the sister wearing an “engagement” ring.

A lot of people in the comments were curious to know what were some of their mom’s reactions after seeing each of these portraits. Which of these shots is her favorite? Kyle responded by saying: “Her reaction is always a mixture of surprise, laughter, and disgust. She always howls with laughter and then just stares at it in disbelief.
