A Southern Santa


It’s Christmas Eve. Is everybody ready for Santa? I just checked the Norad Santa Tracker and saw that he is in Australia right now.

My father used to grow a beard around Christmas and when he did he looked like Santa Claus. I remember when my nephew was young he thought his Papaw was Santa Claus. He knew he was his Papaw but he somehow worked it out in his mind that he could be Papaw and Santa at the same time. I’m not sure how old he was before he realized that his Papaw wasn’t Santa. How great would that be for your grandfather to be Santa Claus?

I’m so happy to have so many wonderful memories of Christmas Eve’s past. I am fortunate to have a wonderful family that helped make those memories. I hope this is a very Merry Christmas Eve for all of you and that you will make wonderful memories this year to look back on with joy.
