Amusing Santa Exchange

I’ve been meaning to post this amusing exchange between my daughter Gianna (age 6) and me for several weeks.  Better late than never.

Gianna– “Mama, how does Santa get to our house?”

Me–“How do you think he gets to our house?”

Gianna–“I’m asking you mama.”

Me–“Well, the story says he travels around by riding on a sleigh pulled by reindeer.”

Gianna–“Yeah, I’m not buying the reindeer.  Real reindeer can’t fly.”

Me–“What about Rudolf?”

Gianna–“Mama, is Rudolf real or pretend?”

Me–after a brief pause, “He’s pretend.”

Gianna–“I knew it!  Santa must get around some other way.”  And off she ran.
