How old were you?

[SC]

No, not how old were you when you stopped believing in Santa. ;-)

How old were you when Santa stopped bringing presents?

I moved out of my parent’s home at 18. Santa left presents for me right up until the last Christmas I lived with my parents!

[Ervserver]

WHY would Santy stop bringing me presents...I'm such a good boy


8-)

I still get em...and a full stockin too.

[ReineV]

when I was eight, the note Santa left for me was in my mothers very distinctive, unmistakably unique handwriting. I looked my mom square in the eye and asked "Mommy....did you write this?" she sighed, looked down, and paused for a moment, then looked me back in the eyes and said, "Yes honey, I did." I smiled and shrugged. I didn't really care, because I always knew my mommy was Santa. She was a divorced parent who worked several jobs to put those presents under the tree, and knowing that made me appreciate her even more.

SOB!
thats so sad

[sheepsnot]

When I first read your reply, dvdguy, I thought you were calling her an SOB. Kinda bold. I'm up to speed now.

You gotta appreciate anyone, whether a single parent or even a two job couple, who goes the extra mile to make their kids' Christmas a happy time. One year my folks told me I wasn't adopted after all. It was a good year.

[dvdguy]

mine decided to let me out of the basement for the day
it was awesome lol

[sheepsnot]

You gotta cut that out. My wife has come in and gone to sleep. I have to read with my hand over my mouth now.

[dvdguy]

that creates an amusing image in my head. I'll be laughing about that for awhile

[ReineV]

mine decided to let me out of the basement for the day

*falls out laughing*

did they let you see the sun too?!

[dvdguy]

nope, it was strictly after dark, didnt want the neighbors to see

[sheepsnot]

Well, your eyes couldn't adjust to the light anyway. They were thinking only of your well being.

[dvdguy]

yeah they still call me mole boy

[Misfit Toy]

You are never to old to still believe, remember Polar Express :wink:

But, hasnt stopped for me and I still get the full stocking. No reason for it to end just because you get older!!!!! :hi:

[dvdguy]

hold on let me check

jingle jingle

yep still works

[mrshamm]

I'm 21, married and have 2 kids of my own now and Santa still leaves me stuff at my parents house...lol. I keep trying to remind my mom that in a few years the kids are going to be asking why santa leaves us stuff at our house and theirs...lol.

[dvdguy]

just tell them hes being careful & wants to make sure where ever you are you get your gifts

[elfworks]

wait.
what?
i dont understand???


why would you even ask this question???????


santa is most assuredly the real thing and if anyone here tries to even suggest differently, i will hunt them down and do something unladylike.

[dvdguy]

burp?

[sheepsnot]

Then you will be on the naughty list and get Nat King Cole in your stocking.

[dvdguy]

is that bad?

[sheepsnot]

Nope. In these days of constant reaffirmation, even Santa can't give out negative gifts.

[dvdguy]

might get sued
ever hear that bill engvall song I'm getting sued by Santa Claus

[Ervserver]

only the lawyers win

:???:
