How old were you when...

I was about eight years old, my best friend at school told me, i would not believe her, and went home and asked my parents, they told me the truth.:)

I still believe.
The person may not be physical, but if you
Keep kindness in your hart.
Enjoy the people around you.
Treat others with kindness.
Give want you can.
He lives.

I never ever have had a fireplace/chimney.... EVER.... and how did Santa came to my house you wonder??.... he turned into a spirit form (aka vaporized) and came under the door... yeah and I believed that...

I know it might not be fair to parents that Santa takes credit if not all at least for the best presents... but believe me, now looking back, I cherish even more the Santa presents as I know the troubles my parents had to do for us not to know...

stay awake late until we slept, when we didn´t wanted to.... buying stuff and keeping it out of sight from curious kids.... in most your cases, wrapping issues LOL..

we never had wrapped presents.. a lil easier on the parents ;)... I still wonder where did they stashed them for us not to see.... some where quite big for keeping them out of sight...hmm....

on easter my mom took the challenge of hiding the candy from us but leaving powder pawprints.... yeah baby powder pawprints all over the house...awww.... and a card with our initial made out of pawprints... so cute!!

Oooh, I think I was 7. I went in my parents room to get something out of thier closet and low and behold, on the top shelf were presents: from SANTA. I was a little upset but didn't say anything because I didn't want to spoil it for my sister who was 4.

I think I was 7, too. I remember the other kids at school arguing about it so I went home and asked my parents, and they told me the truth. :)

I was 11.. I remember asking my mom point blank and she told me the truth.

However.. I still listen really carefully every Christmas Eve.. just in case.. ;)
