Early Santa
This morning we were reading the online news when we heard a knock on the door. A man stood on the porch and I opened the door to talk to him. Little did we know; but his was our Santa...
The man was Santa posing as a tree and landscape worker. He asked if we wanted any wood. I immediately asked what kind of wood was it? Mulberry. Well, here we go round ..., was about all I knew of mulberry; but the Santa said it was a good burner.
Quickly we ran to the curb and took all the pieces Santa would give us. It was actually quite a haul. It was a great gift for us.
We thought kindly of Santa's generosity. We can't wait to warm up to the mulberry gift. Thanks.

Learning to Ho, Ho, Ho
You would think that all it would take to be a good Santa would be someone that could belt out a good HO, Ho, ho; but I guess it takes more than that.
In Florida they even have a Santa University! I doubt that it is accredited outside of Toyland; but in the three day class they teach you how to be one of Santa's public representatives. I am just glad there is someone out there teaching them to twinkle. HO, Ho, ho!!!
