Santa Closet

I nannied this past Saturday night (I solicited myself for every Saturday in Nov and Dec for extra Christmas moolah) and let me tell you, there is so much Santa magic in their house. This is the family I used to work for full time and I love their children. I threaten to steal them every time I am there. The girls are 3.5 and 2 and so adorable. They both want a doll house SO badly and are on their best behavior because Santa only comes if you "eat your veggies and do not bite your sister". Funny thing is the doll house is in the house already covered by a quilt and they are so young, the do not even think to look under a random lump in the hallway around Christmas time. Love it....

Anyway the 2 year old and I were lying in her bed reading books before bed and she whispered to me (aka: shot saliva in my ear) that "Santa Closet" was coming soon with a huge smile on her face. I recommend you all visit a household this year with the true Santa magic going on...it brightened up this hard holiday season for me.I have experienced the magic once again and for that I cannot stop smiling about Christmas time right now.

Hhahahaha Santa Closet! I love the fact they do not loook. O'man, my sister and I would have been in so much trouble - we would have moved it and looked! Truth be told, I would have made her do it and then blame it on her - but i would have been the one my parents been in MORE trouble being I am the oldest.

So glad you found that magic

Santa Closet -- I love it. I may have to visit one neighbor or another to get a little Santa magic myself.

That is one of the things that always amazes me and something I want so badly to experience myself. Christmas through the eyes of a child.
