Our family still believes in Santa. We know that Santa is Jesus Christ in a form that most all can accept in to their lives in some way or another. It was with great joy that my sons told me that the League City Fire Department chose today to be the day they took Santa on the fire engine through the housing area that cousins Mike, Corynn, Reilly & Benny live in. The boys got to see Santa riding on the fire engine (He doesn't always have to use reindeer!). It was an even greater joy for me when I found out that they were having meet Santa at the fire station on Bay Area Boulevard and I was able to take my precious sons. (Got to have the photo opp ... but have you ever tried taking pictures with all the reflective stuff on the fire equipment!) With finances being as they are we haven't been out in the stores much (PTL!) or even out and about much except for church so we haven't been exposed to all the Christmas festivities. Amazingly enough both of my sons asked for dirt bikes (Thanks to the Myers family influence!) but Santa told him he wasn't sure he could get them in his sleigh. We enjoyed hot cocoa and cookies and got to climb on one of the big engines. The boys enjoyed talking to the fire fighters and petting the firehouse dog. They were excited when one of the firemen told the boys to stop in any time as long as they were there, they'd love to have the company. Guess we'll have to take them up on that occasionally, you never know who needs God's influence & prayers in their lives.
