I know the whole Santa thing is controversial in the Christian thought process. Some go with it and others don't. While we don't harp on Santa, we do go with it after much harping on Jesus. We teach Landon first and foremost what Christmas is all about, why we celebrate it, and how it has nothing to do with presents but everything to do with Jesus. That being said, it's a pretty difficult lesson for an almost four-year-old in this very commercialized country we live in. So we give into Santa just a little... and here's how cute it is.

| We only let him choose three things. He's working on his letters, he just needed a "wittle bit" of help :) |

| Off it goes to the North Pole! |
We don't think Santa is a big evil joke for our kids to discover later and then hate us for lying to them. We indulge in the jolly old man a little for the adorableness it brings out in our little guy. It makes Christmas morning a little cuter. And for goodness sake... what parent doesn't enjoy a HUGE plate of cookies and milk to celebrate the exhaustion of the season? We've told Landon that chocolate chip are Santa's favorite (mommy's too!)
