shhhh, it's santa !!

Published Dec. 1, 2008

 

 So last year my hubby and I thought we would create a little Christmas magic for our kids. Christmas eve night, my husband went outside on the back deck while I went into my daughters room to tuck her in. When I got to her room, I turned her light off and on twice to signal. I was tucking her in and all of a sudden we heard sleigh bells ! ( husband jingling bells under her window).

My son comes bolting down the hall into her room, my daughters eyes were so big and she screams ITS SANTA MOMMY !!!!!!!! SANTA SANTA !

It took all I had to go OMG and not laugh., I told them OH OH santa passed our house cause you're still up ! they got right to bed !

IT was one of the most funniest sweetest moments yet !

 what have you done to bring the magic of believing in santa or christmas ?

When our son was younger, my husband and I would get some flour and dip his boots in it and make "snow" footprints on the carpet from the fireplace to the Christmas tree. We got the idea from a co-worker who had done that for his children when they were young. He never wondered why the "snow" from Santa's boots didn't melt!! It was fun. He's almost 14 now and he still likes to talk about that.

Awww... I don't remember my parents doing anything special that extreme. Sure, my sister and I would wake up around 4AM to open presents, and we would get the occasional letter from Santa Claus. One year, there was a letter saying "Look outside" and there we found a trampoline. Another year there was a letter with string attached to it, which let us winding through the house where we found some new bikes at the other end. When I think back, I can't help but hear the "Spirit of Christmas" song by Ray Charles. Classic. One year, the year we got our first computer, the box from Santa was filled with huge, heavy rocks. There was a letter inside that led us on a scavenger hunt around the house until we finally found the computer. That just inspired me to create a blog... Stay tuned!

That is sooo cool! My oldest son no longer believes, but he keeps the magic going for his brother and sister. Last year, his brother started questioning him about Santa, so he said to him: "No way! I could not sleep, one night, and looked out the window when I heard some noises. At first I got scared, and was about to call Mom and Dad, thinking somebody was breaking in. Then I decided to be brave and looked through the blinds, just in time to see Santa leave our house. I went downstairs and found all the gifts!!! Besides, how much money do you think Mom and Dad have? They couldn't afford all that." I heard him while I was putting clothes away in the room next door. It took all I had to keep a straight face and pretend to not have heard.

This is cute! We always leave a couple of presents in the yard, and on the porch...

What a wonderful thing you & your hubby did! Your children will NEVER forget that.

I liked leaving cookies & milk!
