AAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I don't really want to tell my future kids that there's a Santa because I still remember the day I found out there wasn't one. I had heard it from kids at school and asked my mom, just knowing she'd tell me it wasn't true. I flipped out when she told me the truth--I gave her the "You've been lying to me all this time, we always promise to tell the truth to each other, how could yooooouuuuu!!!!!" speech. LOL, it was a very dramatic day. I don't want to go through that with my kids. If I can find a way to circumvent that, I'll consider it but I don't wanna just cross my fingers and hope they don't react the way I did. But, if I choose to raise them not believing in Santa, I don't want them rabbitting on about it either. There's nothing wrong with other children believing in Santa and my kids don't need to be the little Grinches who blow the whistle on every parent in the neighborhood!
