Ash Wednesday

All the more time and opportunity allowed for kids to learn more about the Child Jesus...

The men in Santa suits always creeped me out as a kid and I have a funny picture of myself as a child with "Santa" and I was NOT having it. The Santa scene in "A Christmas Story" was the truth.

The wheels in my head started to turn as a kid when I started learning about Dutch Sinterklaas and then the real St. Nicholas. I think once I learned there was a real historical person, I had the costumed "Santa" with reindeer figured out and it furthered my underlying suspicion that my dad was the one enjoying the midnight sweets left out.
