Good…..And Nice

 

 

Close upEveryone knows that Santa is making a list and he’ll be checking it twice to find out who’s being naughty or nice. Children often come up to me and ask if they are on the good list. In this post, I’d like to answer the question: “What’s the difference between being Good and being Nice?”

Did you know you can visit with Santa via Skype or phone call?  That’s right….. Santa can sing along with you or read you a Christmas story. Just click: SELECT “Skype or Call From Santa” to find out how! After Christmas, Santa will take a break and settle in for a long Winter’s nap. Keep up with the website to find out when he will resume all calls.

Let’s think about what it means to be good. Being good is listening intently, following directions, obeying the law and doing what’s right, for goodness sake. This is all about behavior and making wise choices.

Being nice is all about living up to “The Golden Rule.”…..Treating others the way you would like to be treated. This is all about attitude and building lasting relationships with kindness, sharing, caring, fairness, loyalty and love. You see, there is really only one List. Everybody’s name is on it. There are four (4) boxes after each Name:     ___ Good     ___ Bad     ___ Naughty     ___ Nice.

A little boy was overheard to pray, “Dear God, make all the people good, and all the good people nice.” If only adults would pay attention to the LIST as much as children do, what a better place this ‘ol world would be.

Just Checking,

Santa

Santa At The Mall

Santa Waving Close up

From Mid-November ’til Christmas Eve. Santa will appear at shopping malls, car dealerships and a variety of retail stores, parties, hospital and home visits and other community events. He always appreciates the opportunity to share the JOY of the Season.

Did you know you can visit with Santa via Skype or phone call?  That’s right….Santa can sing along with you or read you a Christmas story. Just click on the RED menu button at the top of the page then SELECT “Skype or Call From Santa” to find out how!

Even shopping takes on a happier tone when the Christmas Music starts to play and the shoppers are motivated by a spirit of love and generosity. People seem to take on the spirit of giving as they search for treasures to share with their loved ones. This keeps Santa and his helpers very busy.

It does my heart good when YOU do something nice for someone else. I love to see that happen, even at the mall, as I wave and share a Ho-Ho-Ho…..Merry Christmas!

Loving The Life,

Santa

Two Little Boys

Santa Waving Close upThis story is about Thomas and Blaise Bohannon of Houston, TX. I like watching these two brothers in action. Well, let me tell you how they surprised their dad one day.They were feeling chilly as they were waiting to be seated at an air conditioned restaurant. Their dad said it was o.k. for the boys to wait outside on the porch where they could warm up.

Thomas and Blaise went in and out a couple of times, and the last time they came in, they left the door open. Dad rushed over to give the boys “The Look” and he saw that they were intensely focused on an elderly man in a wheel chair being pushed up the ramp. He then, went back to wait in line, and did nothing to prevent the boys from holding the door for someone in need.

Maybe you would like to tell Santa your story. Did you know you can visit with Santa via Skype or phone call?  That’s right….Santa can sing along with you or read you a Christmas story. Just click on the RED menu button at the top of the page then SELECT “Skype or Call From Santa” to find out how!

The neat thing about Thomas and Blaise is the fact that they decided all on their own to help the elderly man. It is never too early to practice random acts of kindness.

Love,

Santa

Two Little Girls

Close upI was inquiring about two girls who are best buds. Soraya and Isabella are together most of the time. When you see one you see the other. I was reminded of a time last year that created a “Near Miss” for one of the girls.

Did you know you can visit with Santa via Skype or phone call?  That’s right….Santa can sing along with you or read you a Christmas story. Just click on the RED menu button at the top of the page, then SELECT “Skype or Call From Santa” to find out how!

Back to the story…..It was last year, just before Christmas, and 5 year old,Soraya and 6 year old Isabella were playing. After awhile Soray’s Gramma felt like she needed to step in and say something. She asked Isabella: “Aren’t you being a little bossy?” To this, Isabella stood up straight, put her hands on her hips and said, “I’m not bossy, I’m giving directions!”

After that “Close Call”, both girls ended up on the nice list and received lots of presents from Santa. Remember, it’s not only what you DO that counts, but also what you SAY.

Love,

Santa

138 Days ‘Til Christmas

 As the calendar and clock keep time with the countdown to Christmas, so Santa’s Workshop starts to run like a well-oiled machine. The elves and their helpers are working diligently to fill their time with top production goals in order to make sure every child has a gift that will put a smile on his or her face.

Santa is even using the computer to make more contacts than ever before. Did you know you can visit with Santa via Skype or phone call? That’s right….Santa can sing along with you or read you a Christmas story. Just click on the RED menu button at the top of the page then SELECT “Skype or Call From Santa” to find out how!

No matter what happens in the world throughout the year, you can count on Santa Claus to bring laughter and cheer to brighten your day. That is one of the best gifts you can ever give, too. I am so glad to see that the names on the Nice List far out-number the names on the Naughty List.

This makes me very happy and shows me that most of you are keeping Christmas in your heart all year long.

Counting The Days,

Santa
