It's That Time of Year -- Robin

Yep, it’s that time again. Time for mistletoe and holly and candy canes. But when you’re a parent, it’s also time for…the questions.Usually the questions come in groups of two or three and the answers are simple and we can move on quickly to eating our candy canes. But this year, my son is six-and-a-half, so the questions came fast and furious. And I was completely unprepared…• Will Santa visit our house this year?• And Uncle Buddy’s house, too?• Even Georgia?• How does he visit everyone’s house in one night?• Is he magic?• Was he always magic?• Was he born magic?• Does Santa have a mommy and a daddy?• Does Santa have brothers and sisters?• Is Santa married?• Do they have kids?• Why not?• Why don’t they just have their own kids?• Was Santa born from his mommy’s tummy?• Right after Santa was born from his mommy’s tummy, what did she do?• Why?• But why?• But…but why do we need to go to church more often now?• Oh.• Can I have some juice?So I feel bad saying this, but I’m a little concerned about Easter now. (And if anyone out there knows what Santa’s mommy did right after he was born from her tummy, please let me know. I’m at a loss here!!!)- Robin
