Brooke Knows the Truth About Santa
She knew the truth before she asked me this question the other night as we pulled into the grocery store parking lot. “Mom, is Santa real or do you fill our stockings and put presents out on Christmas morning?” How do you answer that question when you know by the way she asked it that she knows the truth? I had to tell her the truth. 1) Santa makes it fun. 2) Jesus makes it real. 3) Don’t tell your brother.

LOL. It was a nice surprise to see a couple new posts from you tonight. (I haven't yet read the other.) Thomas hasn't out-right asked me quite in those terms, but he has told me that he isn't sure if he believes (or did he say he doesn't think he does believe?) in Santa any more. When I asked why, he said some other kids in his class don't believe and he thought we must put the unwrapped presents under the tree. I told him that I do put "some" under the tree and said that some people do believe, and some people don't. I told him many grown-ups don't believe, but it would be up to him to choose whether or not he believes. Ha ha. How's that for not saying anything definitive? I almost took it a step further, but "I" wasn't ready!
