I wish I could display my thanks to my Santa in a spectacular way in the way he showed my children.

This year, I asked for my children to be gifted in place of me; there has never been and seriously never will be a greater joy than seeing the magic of Christmas on their faces.

From the start, my Santa messaged just as jolly old St. Nick would. When we got their last message, my kids were eager with anticipation! When we got our Santa’s package today, they were thrilled (even the baby haha!)

Oh Santa, you didn’t disappoint. Their reactions were PRICELESS. My son, a pretty active swimmer, was in awe of his cool new goggles and snorkeling mask. He can’t wait for his swim class break to be over so he could try it out!

AND A FINGERLING?!? My daughter was STUNNED! These are SO hard to find and she just about flipped!! (Almost literally...she just got back from gymnastics!)

And my baby...well, suffice to say, Big Bird now holds a special place in his nursery along with his new sound machine (the gift of sleep to his parents is something immeasurable)!

Thank you THANK YOU Santa. My children couldn’t believe how well you knew them and neither could I.
