That red and white suit on anyone makes you think Christmas, or at least it does for me. The little children`s faces when they see a Santa are always a picture. A bit wary, because he`s a stranger but then excitement because he brings presents on Christmas Eve if they are good.
For me that`s the magic of Christmas, even though it has become so hi tech. The older grandchildren sent letter`s to Santa and got one in return. The 6 year old, the other year had a video message from Santa via e-mail and I have to say it did look really good. There was also the bonus of being able to watch it several times.
You can tell the children now that he`s watching and tracking them via computer and they believe that more than if you say he knows by magic.
Seeing those little faces though on Christmas morning has a magic all of it`s own and they are memories that stay with you, even when your children have children of their own.

ENJOY!!!
Santa`s coming, soon he`ll be on his way,
he`ll make it before Christmas Day.
All those elves so very busy
probably getting in a tizzy.
The world population is growing
maybe Santa has machinery glowing
and working at a super fast rate
to be ready in time for THAT date.
Computer fans will be blowing
trying to keep the air flowing
as it all moves into top gear
for this special time of year.
I bet when he`s finished on his round
the minute his feet touch the ground
he say`s `never again for mince pies`
and his wife just looks and sighs.
Yes dear, not until next year,
when they`ll be plenty, never fear!!

Oh how cute! My favourite Santa memory is from the day when my daughter came home from school chuckling away because her more worldly friend had spilled the beans and told her Santa wasn't real. I was upset at first, but then she carried on laughing telling me her friend had said that it was the parents that bought the presents.Her final words: "I mean, AS IF you'd spend all that money! Of course you wouldn't!"
