Father Christmas you are sacked

does-santa.jpg

Does Santa really exist? This was the exact sentence my son ( 8) wrote in Google . We both realised (we useless parents) too late that damage was done when he came in the kitchen and talked about this guy called Dave. “Dave says father Christmas can’t exist”.

Not only was it hard to come to terms with the fact that Ben Ouai started to question the existence of Santa but worst…that he would rather hear the truth from SciGuy than his own parents who have worked so hard all these years to keep the magic intact.

Although I have to say I would have never delivered so many facts which seemed to make Ben Ouai very happy and the whole business of father Christmas not existing casual…

  2. ahahah! John what is going on with father christmas this year???

  3. This is terrible! What will the kid think if they saw santa like this??? He! He! Maybe I will tell them santa drink too much & forgot to put on his cloths! BTW tq for dropping at my site! Have a nice day!

  4. Hi Horny Ang Moh, after reading your comment I decided to remove the picture as the content of my post and this pic are totally unrelated. Thanks I did not look at it in that light when I first added it and it is easy to jump to conclusions. Have a Merry christmas!

  5. I say, if the kid’s old enough to read SciGuy on his own, you weren’t going to fool him for much longer anyway. ;)

  6. Yes I think he was just double checking with Google in order to “finalise” his decision! ;-)

  7. Don’t worry, my two sons went through a phase of logical doubt, albeit a little older than Ben Ouai, but when it came to that last moment of anxiety, the one where they think ‘if I don’t believe in him he definitely won’t come; if I do, nothing lost’.

    I bet he’s a believer by Christmas Eve!

  8. I felt a bit betrayed by my father when he confessed to me there was no Santa Clause–but not for the reasons you might think. I was upset at the thought of decreasing my presents allotment on Christmas Day! ; ) (I was such a greedy little thing.)

    We had a wonderful Santa for our foster care party last weekend. Santa appeared with Run DMC’s “Christmas in Hollis” blaring on the stereo system. He made everyone, (including the foster parents) sit on his lap before he gave them their gift. To top it all off, the whole party danced around the reception room with Santa heading the conga line.

  9. Cowgirl:Sounds like the sort of atmosphere I would like to recreate in our little home for Christmas. I love this time of the year!
    Merry Christmas!

    Crofty: you are very right, he is believe in it more and more as we are getting closer!
