The issue of Santa arises most frequently at this time of year especially among kids, especially when brightly wrapped presents with big flourishing bows are expected under the lavishly decorated Christmas tree. Ohhhh.. Im going to get a really big present this year! What about you? Everyone is comparing to see who receives the biggest, best-est and most-est present!
Whilst the adults are playing Secret Santa, overheard in a classroom conversation.
Girl 1: “Who do you think gives you your presents? Santa of course.”
Girl 2: “WHAT! There is no such thing as Santa!
SANTA IS DEAD!”
HAHAHAHA! I love her conviction and the fire in her eyes when saying that Santa has already graced the pages of the obituary. And that it’s really your parents who buy you the wonderful gifts you open your eyes to on Christmas Day.
An 8-year-old who knows what she stands for, what she believes in and is not afraid to fight for it. That’s my kinda girl.
So now, have you been naughty or nice? Will you get the present you asked Santa for this time around? I dont think Im getting any presents this year from Santa though.
BAH HUMBUG! Look! It’s an Italian Santa!
