The Truth of Christmas

Growing up I loved santa. But What little kid didn't.  Santa was the man.  He came once a year to give you stuff.  I beleived in santa a lot longer than my friends.  Mainly because I was an only child and didnt have older brothers and sisters to tell me the truth.  I beleived in Santa until I in the fifth or sixth grade.  But now I know the truth.  But as I learned the there is no such thing as santa I also learned there was more to christmas than just getting presents from santa.  The real meaning of christmas is family and friends.  Christmas is a great time to be with your family.  Think about it how often do you get together with your whole family and celebrate? Not very often.  Christmas is that one time that you can actually be with them.
