I LOVE Christmas ... and Easter ... and the Tooth Fairy (ok, here it's a tooth mouse)

I just feel kids should be allowed to imagine and their imaginations should be stimulated. Kids should believe in fairies, trolls, gremlins, Santa ... you name it. I remember my dad driving us NUTS around christmas, having us run from the back door to the front door because "you just missed him" I believe it's clean fun. It's like telling your kids tales about Sleeping Beauty or native tales.

So yes, I'm putting up my chrissie deco come 1st Dec and am already telling dd that Santa is coming with presents

But that does not mean we forget what Christmas is really about. The question "is Santa real in your house" YES , but is that the only thing that is talked about around Christmas .... NO.
