Our Papa Is Santa Too?

When our daughter asked me to be Santa Claus for our first grandson our little grandson Jeffrey who loves me and I love him how could I say no? I couldnt. I told her I would rent a Santa suit wig and beard and plan accordingly to be available for when she wanted me to make my appearance for Jeffrey. She said No Dad. You can rent a Santa suit but I want you to let your hair and beard grow out so itll be the real thing. Surprise. My hair has been white for quite a few years. Being an old Marine I always kept my hair neatly cut and fairly short. I had no idea what my beard would look like although I suspected it would be mostly white also. Throughout my entire career and raising our two children I had never had any facial hair. Even our son asked Is that you Dad? when we met him at the airport some months later. Thus began my most recent Santa Claus venture. And it has been more fun than I ever imagined it could be. So please sit back relax and enjoy from my perspective what its like to be Santa Claus. I think you will be surprised and amazed at some of what I have seen and heard. I know I am. And thats exactly why I decided to write this book. You just cant make this stuff up.
