Beating the Wrap

As I wrap presents for my grandson's special day, I recall that a few weeks ago, at the birthday of another grandson, my daughter confided that my present was the only one not in a gift bag, the only one, that is wrapped in paper.

Am I the only one who still does this, who cuts, creases and tapes the paper, who unspools and measures the ribbon, then curls it with scissors? 

There are a few of us out there who honor the old ways, who wrap rather than insert, who tie rather than stuff. But not many.
