My All Time Favorite Santa

We saw lots of Santas this year, but this Santa was my all time favorite. He sat and read the kids a book and then asked if anyone had any questions. Audrey asked him a question and he answered and then said, "Who is this girl's mom?" I raised my hand and he said to me, "Has anyone ever told you she looks like a mini Reese Witherspoon?" Ha! But that is not why he is my favorite. This is:
One of the kids asked him if he was magic, and he responded, "No. I am not magic. I am very good at what I do, but I am not magic. The only person who can work real magic is Jesus Christ. He is why we celebrate this season and He is the only one who can really change your life."
And then, as if it couldn't get better, he said to everyone, "I want to talk about Mrs. Clause for a minute. She does so much and hardly gets any recognition. I could not do what I do without her. She is like all your moms in a way, doing so much and hardly getting recognized. I want each of you to tell your moms how much you love them."


Audrey asked Santa what he wanted for Christmas, and he said, "I want you to tell your mom everyday how much you love her." I am obsessed with this Santa.


Saw this in the bathroom and only had one thought: brillant. Why didn't someone think of this sooner?
