YES VIRGINIA.....THERE IS A SANTA CLAUS.

As the famous poem goes......"Yes, Virginia there is Santa Claus.  He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exists, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy.  Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus!  It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginia's........No Santa Claus! thank God he lives and lives forever.  A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood."  Yes, there is a Santa, and the one you see is my 11 year old Scottie, who volunteered to be Santa at Grammie's Christmas party.  I made the Santa outfit many years ago for Sherrie to have a Santa at their work party, it has been used for many years.  This year Scott borrowed it for his Halloween costume and decided to be Santa at the party......he was the star with his bag of presents to every ones delight.  Thank you Mr Scottie Santa! Will we see you next year????
Nicci , Bill and Ollie came by and had breakfast with me.  She is so neat and so far away.  They were excited to be going to the Barn for New Years......I was so happy they took time out of their busy schedule to squeeze in a visit to Gram. All grandchildren are special in their gram's hearts.
I can't help but think about my sister with her big heartiness rented a beach house for her family this year with a day at "Sea World"....I can't imagine trying to coordinate 26 people in eating, sleeping and keeping them happy.  HAPPY NEW YEARS LES........
Lots of cold and snow this week, did sneak out to a movie this afternoon. Good Ole 2012 almost done..
