How are you doing? You all settling in for a nice Holiday? Heading to Long Island on Saturday to exchange some gifts with my family. Then fight the LI Expressway for 3-4 hours to get back home from what should be a 1 1/2 hour trip. Then we will have Christmas Eve dinner at with wifey's folks followed by Christmas Day dinner with my folks. The kids made out their lists and checked them twice. Our oldest son who is in 2nd grade and ready for college is beginning to get hip to the whole thing. Asking a lot of questions. I just act offended and tell him that the kids on the school bus who keep telling him that there is no such thing as Santa must be the bad kids who Santa doesn't bring stuff to. Pretty good answer if I must say. It made him feel a little silly to ask such questions. I know it's wrong to do so but he's too young to not have the fun and belief in things magical. Besides, little Anthony had looked very sad as his brother insisted it was all a big scam. -MiceElf
