My sister and I were talking about Santa yesterday. We believed wholeheartedly till we were 12 years old. No matter what any of the kids said I would not listen to them and believed with my heart. When she heard the other kids talk about no Santa she would walk away. My sister asked our mom when she was 12 to tell her the truth "Mother, is there really a Santa Claus?" My mother paused and replied..."If you stop believing there is no magic."
We still believe....do you?

Hi Kim,
Merry Christmas to you, even though it was yesterday!
LadyCat and I had a lovely Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with family. No doubt there is magic in the air as we ride the "Polar Express". I love in that movie how they captured Santa's kind, gentle spirit. Hope you had a beautiful White Christmas!

Your mom preserved the magic for you and your sister. She planted that little seed of wonder in her daughters and helped you to water it, and it flowered into something beautiful that you both still hold dear. I am so glad you came by my blog and left a comment. I look forward to visiting often here!
