When Did You Stop Believing In Santa Claus or Father Christmas?

I think it would be fun to be "the man behind the curtain" and create all the magic for the kids. That was nice you extended them this opportunity for an extra few years! :)

You're certainly right about Christmas being just as fun for the parents! And my parents went all out! I'm one of 3 kids (I'm the middle child) and each of us received so many presents that it took us literally hours to open them all. My folks made a decent living and spoiled us at Christmastime. One thing I remember: every year my brother received a doctor's satchel filled with toy stethoscope, candy pills, bandages, etc. (anyone remember those?) while my sister and I got nurses' kits every year. I think my mom was trying to tell us something! :laugh:

I'm with Jess on this one I believe! I believe in the easter bunny, the tooth fairy and the Great Pumpkin too! ;) At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

I remember those doctor kits!! Yup. I had a few of them too, and those pills never lasted very long. I'd always end up eating them all! The kit came in a plastic case. Sure I remember those, Littlewing! :D

Well, I already admitted I still believe in him a little bit. I guess I keep a tiny bit of my childhood alive in my heart. I don't know what it is. But I always keep my ears trained for reindeer noises each Christmas Eve. I realize there won't be any reindeers on my roof, but a small part of me continues to believe and to listen for them each year. I guess I'm still a kid at heart. It's kind of weird, isn't it?
