Santa Daddy
My favorite Santa Claus pictures of my children and of my
grandchildren are with my Santa Daddy. The last time he wore his suit was in
2007. For eight long years it has hung in my closet. The last time he wore it,
he took it off and told me to keep it, so I can play Santa. I could never fill
his shoes, so there it has hung. I pulled it out this year for the first time. I
cried as my hands ran over the velvety flocked suit. I think he'd be happy that
Santa has started making visits again. It's going to live in someone else's
closet now. The suit will make magic happen for many more children in the years
to come. I think I did the right thing.
