I heard this funny story from my aunt this holiday season.
I don't remember the details like names and ages, but you will get the overall point.
Maggie was a nine-year-old girl who deeply believed in Santa Claus.
Maggie's parents worried that Maggie would soon would be bullied if she kept believing.
Last Christmas, Maggie's mother sat her down and told her the painful truth that all children don't want to hear.
Maggie's mom asked, "Sweetheart, who is Santa?"
"He is a nice old man that brings toys to boys and girls all around the world on Christmas Eve."
Thinking there was no other way to break the new to her, the mother responded,
"Maggie, I am Santa Claus."
There was a long pause. Instead of the expected sobbing that was to follow, Maggie exclaimed,
"REALLY? You fly around the world in one night and give toys to boys and girls?"
I am going to stop the story here. I thought the story was so sweet and simple, I wish everyone had the innocence and sincerity of a child.
Happy Friday.
