Actually believe it or not nobody told me I kinda of figure it out that it was impossible for one man to travel the whole world in one night..
Even if there was a magic answer to that one I still wouldn't believe. Somehow with me I just grew out of it.Around 7 or 8..I know I know too old..lol..
But sssssoooo badly wanted to hold on to the Innocent magic delights of Christmas. For which I have some of that even as old as I am today just because there isn't one man before doesn't means there isn't Christmas cause now there are 1 billions Santa's in the world just doing nice things and goodness for those who would have had a bad winter.
Have a Happy and safe hoilday with family and friends. :-)

When I was 10 I discovered the truth about Santa Claus, it did not effect my belief in the magic of Christmas as I still think it is a magical time!

I still believe in the spirit of Santa. It is just a way keeping the fun of the birthday of Christ in the giving and receiving of gifts. I was about ten when the truth as to who Santa was revealed to me but then I became part of keeping of the legend for my younger relatives and friends which I found then and find now as a very satisfying part of the real meaning of Christmas as started by the three kings and the shepherds over 2000 years ago when they came to the stable and gave gifts to the baby lying there.

I believe in Santa Clause!!! Santa isn't necessarily a big guy in a red suit you know! He is the Spirit of Christmas. He represents all the good in Christmas. I do not believe in the jolly fat guy but, I do believe in Santa as the Spirit of Christmas.

My Granmother let it slip in front of me when I was 6.I was devasted.She tried to play it off,but could'nt.I swore my kids would believe in the magic of the spirit of Santa,if not the actual person.To this day my daughter calls and says,"I wonder what Santa will bring me this year.She is 21.She knows he is not an actual person,but has seen the magic of his spirit her whole life.I will even give you one example.One year my husband was laid off and I was sick.We told the kids there would be no Christmas.3 days later we woke up and on our screen in porch was wrapped presents for all of us.By the way,that was the year that I started believeing again also.A few months later I learned who done it.But I'll tell you what I BELIEVE!!!!!!

I was about 6 and i pretendred to be asleep to catch out santa having suspected it was really my dad for a while. I then took great pleasure in telling my 3 year old brother he wasnt real , made him cry n got a smack from our mum.
christmas still has as much magic for me. even though im 30 n know santas not real i still like to imagine he might be n listen out for those sleigh bells!

I was about 9 and it was my 'friends' who spilled the beans. But I still got excited by the whole spirit of Christmas and the tree and decorating and the parties, etc.... Then, I got married and had two wonderful daughters! Guess what? The magic never left, it just woke up again and again!
Merry Christmas!
