1. Its a known fact that Santa packs his sleigh 10 days before Christmas. Any changes made to one's wish list after that time probably won't be honored. Sorry honey, the sleigh is all packed!
(Don't bother begging Santa to repack, by the way.. he's surely wearing his earmuffs.. its the North Pole!)
2. Santa's gifts will not be wrapped in pretty striped paper like in the Polar Express movie. Why? Well because we live in the South... the humidity would ruin the paper. (That movie was obviously made in the North.)
3. During the entire month of December, if Santa sees toys scattered on the living room floor, he may not stop here, for fear of slipping!
4. If you eat too many Christmas cookies, there will be none left for Santa and his reindeer.
5. There is no T.V. watching time limit during the holidays, so long as it is a Christmas movie or some wholesome programming. Its not that Momma doesn't want you underfoot while I'm wrapping, baking, cleaning, etc.. Christmas movies help to get your heart in the spirit of Christmas, and besides this is the perfect time of year to slow down and relax. (Right?)
6. Going to bed on time, cleaning your plate at dinner and helping Mom are all great ways to stay on Santa's nice list. Complaining about any of the above is a sure way to get on the naughty list.
7. Christmas is about "getting" alright, but its not about getting presents. Its about getting your heart ready to celebrate the birth of Jesus. The more love, joy, peace, humility and gratitude in our hearts, the happier we will all be on Christmas morning, guaranteed!
