I totally AGREE with you Ang! I was feeling a bit edgy one day and decided I would purge my bit of discontent and make it fun! Someday (soon) our kiddos will know. And someday (soon) we will be missing these precious moments… ugh. Makes me so sad. 🙁

So funny!!! However I’m happy to give the jolly fat guy all the credit…..seeing the pure innocence of wonder and joy in my kiddos eyes is the best gift ”Santa” could give me. I’ll greatly miss these years when my kids are older.

Well glad it worked for you!!! I got hit this season with not only Santa but the freaking TOOTH FAIRY with BOTH of the kids! Geesh. This childhood wonder and magic thing is exhausting. 😉

This should become the new holiday standard!

I’ve tried to downplay the jolly old fat man. This year, i think it worked.

I never understood, as a kid, why the rich kids got all the good gifts.

Oh you’re so sweet sis! See how I rhymed it all? Do ya see all the work and time spent on this little diddie? SO not worth it! LOL Sometimes I just go snowballing down and lose myself in a piece like this. All for what? I wonder…oh how I wonder! 😉 (I know you get that…consider this piece much like your hour and a half deleted!)

OH I think it will be bittersweet when my girl figures it out!! Just like you, I think I will cry at her loss of wonder and yet…I’m sure she will join me in being “Santa” to her little brother just like your son did! It’s amazing how fast it all goes, isn’t it? Ah… yes. Nostalgic heart beating faster now… along with the time.

After getting over my initial tears, I really enjoyed my son learning the truth this year about Santa. It was really fun to be a co-conspirator with him with his sister, letting him help play Santa. And I know he has a bigger appreciation for his gifts this year because he knows that I picked out each and every one. Cute post 🙂

Oh you can SURELY tag along on the Hawaii trip!!! However, Santa totally failed me (again) and didn’t give it to me. Instead I got a house full of screaming spoiled kids and a good ol’ pot of coffee! Woohoo! SO happy you have one kid that will now see how hard “Santa” works!!! I am hoping next year my oldest will finally figure it out… So grateful you stopped by. 🙂

Don’t you think Erle would have liked this? I picture him saying, “Clever Chris”. That’s it. Just that. 🙂 Kinda like my Night Before Christmas Poem three years ago…
