Santa Memories


Norman Rockwell has always been one of my favorite artists.
I love his work. This particular picture reminds me how,
for many years, Gramps would dress up as Santa and go around spreading cheer. Those are happy memories.

I loved it when Papa dressed as Santa Claus. What a sport.

It was fun being Santa Claus.
I remember how excited the little children would get when Grandma would drive me in car to be Santa and they would see me all dressed up and tell their parents, "Look there is Santa"

i remember my childcare kids hiding under the table, terrified, the year "Santa" came over to play. they did warm up though, when they saw he had a friendly face, happy smile and most importantly, a prize for them.

i also remember that Victoria never fell for it.
