Spirit of Christmas

I'm not sure if it is tradition at this point or just pure procrastination on my part. Matthew writes his letter to Santa on Christmas Eve. He pours the milk, sets up his cookie display and waits...

He waited this year for several hours in bed...camera on hand...waiting to tape the elusive Santa slipping down the chimney. Watching the excitement on your children's faces makes the stress of the holidays so worth it. This year he even asked for his cousin Jake, who is currently serving in Afghanistan, to come home safe from the war. What a sweet soul! Santa visited...almost three hours after the boys laid down, they were both finally asleep!! He certainly made Christmas look spectacular!
