In his old room , Scott stripped out of his uniform and put on sweatpants and slippers . On his bed was the loose T-shirt with a blond-haired elf on the front that his mother had given him the year before . The elf was shirtless , wearing red boxer shorts with holly on them , and he was licking a candy cane while dangling a round ornament on one finger of his other hand .
Upon seeing the shirt when Scott unwrapped it , a cousin had started singing , “ Don we now our gay apparel ...” and had broken into riotous laughter . That didn ’ t stop the family from insisting he wear it . He was sure he ’ d asked Mary to give it to Goodwill , so how it had shown up again this year he couldn ’ t explain . Yet , there it was . It could only have come from one person .
“ The things we do for our mothers .” Scott slipped it on over his head and headed for the kitchen .
