Well our daughter will be 9 this Christmas and some of her class mates no longer believe in Santa or are questioning if Santa is real. I know it will be only a matter of time before she starts questioning it too. Last year one of the boys told her that Santa wasn’t real and that his parents bought all his presents. She told him that was because he was bad and Santa doesn’t bring presents to bad boys!!!! LOL! I am hoping she keeps innocently believing for another year or two.
To me Santa is more then an actual person …it’s the feeling…. The spirit if giving, making someone’s holiday more enjoyable so on that note I was thinking about becoming a secret Santa to one of our neighbors. Her husband recently died, this is the second husband she lost in 10 years and she lost her son last year. I have known this lady for many years and she is a very sweet person. I am going to get my daughter involved in this and do the 12 days of Christmas anonymously by leaving a small gift for her each day for 12 days. I think it would truly lift her spirits and it will introduce the true spirit of Christmas to my daughter… giving without receiving! I am hoping that when the time comes that her friends no longer believe in Santa the person at least my daughter will believe in the spirit of Santa.
