My greatest Joy...

On Christmas is having an 8 year old boy who still believes.
I just love the look on his face when he gets his presents from Santa! Unfortunately, he woke up at 5 am. to find them
A Merry and PF Christmas to Everyone!

Merry Christmas, Jim and Barb! It is great watching Christmas through the eyes of an eight-year-old.
In our house, believing in Santa is compulsory. If you don't believe, he simply passes you by. Amazing how all the teenage bravado and angst can melt away when you MUST believe in Santa!

We've got a 17-year-old who did the same thing.
At least it wasn't 3 AM.

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

That's the fun part for sure. Mine are grown but the grandsons still delight in Santa....and Grammy delights in it too.
When mine were little I'd wake them up at 5 ot 6...I couldn't wait....

My 18 year old son, who's had to wait for Dad to get up every year for the last 10 years, had his greatest joy this morning- by blasting the walls out with rock versions of Christmas music to wake still sleeping Darryl LOL
(I secretly loved it!)

I miss having little ones around at Christmas. All the grand-kids don't believe anymore. 
I still have one niece and one nephew who believe... but I don't see them enough.
*sigh*

Ya'll got to sleep till FIVE???? Caleb heard the "reindeer" making noise on the roof at FOUR!!!!! And we all GOT to get UP!!!! Sure nuff -- Santa had come - we missed seeing him leave - as hard as we looked - guess Rudolph had his nose turned off or somethin' but they had definitely been there -- the cookies and beer were all gone (ok this is the south - Caleb insists that Santa wants cookies and BEER!)
It was a LONG day.....
But you're right -- Santa is alive and well.... He even brought Granny something and she's not too OLD to believe....
Hugs BD
