My true meaning of Christmas

Here is a free digital image I got @ "Crafting With Deedee's Digis". Her challenge this week is to make something that tells what Christmas means to you. When I was a kid, it was ALL about Santa Claus! To me, he was this fat, lovable man, who loved me NO MATTER what I did. I would be mean to my sister & maybe even tell a lie or 2. Of course, I always felt bad & always said I was sorry for what I did (Mom made sure of that). And what'a you know, I would wake to find a present from Santa every year, on Christmas morning! I guessed, he knew I was good, deep down & so he loved me anyway. Now that I am old :) , I realized that Jesus is my Santa. I still can't wait for Christmas to come every year, I know that he still loves me no matter what & just like I did with Santa when I was little, I sometimes lay in bed with my eyes closed & wish I could see him...JUST ONCE!
May the peace of God be with you this Christmas & always. b.
