subtitle: Christmas-time at our house - part 3
This is the 3rd installment in my Christmas-time at our House series. We do holiday things differently around our house. After all, it IS my house and I'm OK with being weird. Is it any surprise, then, that "Santa" gets special treatment at our house? It's true. But it might not be quite what you think it is.
What do YOU do with Santa Claus? What do you think about him? Do you think about him at all, or do you just do the Santa thing because it's what has always been done and everyone around you is doing it? Santa is the fun part of Christmas, right?
So how do you (we) respect the magnitude of influence that this jolly old elf has on the Christmas season, while still focusing on the REAL reason for the season - Christ's birth? It's tough to do both, but it can be done, I think, if you are intentional about how you deal with all the hype, rather than the hype dictating to you what should be done.
