Is Santa really real?

Leslie I know you wonder what to tell the children whether Santa is real or not. Do you remember the magic of Santa when you were little? Santa is the spirit of giving and love. Didn't the wisemen bring gifts? You will always tell and read the Christmas story and the birth of Jesus as being the reason we celebrate Christmas. We always keep Jesus in our heart as most important. Didn't we have the nativity scene and read the story from the Bible every Christmas Eve. That was the true meaning of Christmas. Santa is just part of the magic of Christmas. I don't think it ever took away from the reason for celebration. Did it for you? Would you trade that magic and memories? Did you know why we celebrated Christmas? Of course you did and we all tried to keep the real meaning alive. Like I said Santa is just part of the magic. When my boys asked me if there was really a Santa I explained that he represented the spitit of giving and love. Don't think they really understood until they were older but it eventually makes sense to them. Have fun and make good, happy and wonderful memories. Love you Grammy
