>>When I was four my mother took us shopping in downtown San Francisco. We went to five stores and each one had a Santa Claus who would ask the children what they wanted for Christmas. I asked my mom why there was more than one Santa Claus, and mom replied, “Santa is very busy and those are his helpers”! I drove my mom nuts with many questions and she was fast on her feet with her replies, which always satisfied me.

>>That experienced occurred in 1946 and yesterday I had a realization that struck me. Yes there is a Santa Claus! Santa Claus is the spirit of Christmas and we are all his helpers!

>>Another question I asked my mom when I was four years old. “How does Santa get into our house? We don’t have a chimney”! Mom replied with no hesitation, “Santa has a key to everyone’s front door”! :)

>Was that really a smart reply? There appear to be many young kids who become afraid due to such explanations. They fear that someone will break into their house.

Worse... someone will take Santa hostage and steal his superkey. Then rob everybody.
