In Reply to: Christmas Story posted by fbh44 on December 23, 2017 at 07:39:18:

Our oldest daughter, only child at that time, was about 3. An older neighbor(Tom) called Christmas afternoon and asked what time we wanted Christa to go to bed. We said about 7:30 or so. He said he and Betty would be down about 7:30 and he would walk around the outside of the house with some sleigh bells jingling them and we could tell her Santa was checking up on her. I said that would be fun to see her reaction. They showed up right at 7:30 and we were expecting them. Betty sat in the car while Tom went around the house jingling the bells. We all heard them and Christa said what's that sound? I said it sounded like Santa was checking to see if she was asleep yet or not. She jumped up and said, I have to go to bed so Santa will come, and headed right to bed. A few minutes later, Tom and Betty knocked on the door and came inside. Christa was already in bed asleep. We all had a good laugh and visited a bit and then they went home.
Fast forward to the next year. Alta bought Christa a lot of toys that needed to be put together, wood toy box, kitchen set and a couple more things, I don't remember what except they had a million pieces that needed to be put together. We lived in a small house and there was no place to hide anything big from Christa, so I said I would stay up and put it all together after she went to bed. At 2 am I finally gave up, still didn't have the first one all together. Needless to say, she got several items that needed to be put together after Christmas.
Fast forward about 10 years and 3 houses. 3 kids now, the house had a short steep bank in front of the house. It snowed good late Christmas Eve. Santa brot all 3 kids snow coasters. Middle child (Casey) woke up about 3am, fresh snow, new snow coaster from Santa, so he got dressed and went out and tried it out for quite a while in the dark. Them he came inside and dried it off and put it back with Santa's gifts and went back to bed like nothing happened. We all woke up around 6 and they were all excited about the snow and the new snow coasters. Only give away was all the tracks in the fresh snow. Casey said that he hadn't thought about that. We all had a good laugh about it. Chris
