On Christmas Eve, my brother and I would leave out a glass of milk & cookies for Santa, and would put them on a paper plate, along w/ carrots for his reindeer (they need to eat too!!) We would walk into the living room on Christmas morning and the milk was half gone, still some cookie crumbs left on the plate and the carrots were chewed on. Santa would also leave us a drawing and a special note on the paper plate. We looked forward to it every year - even posed for the camera w/ the plate picture he left for us. Later my parents told us my Dad was the one who drew on the plate (man could he draw, and Santa got all the credit all those years!) and then they would have our rabbits chew on the carrots to make it look like the reindeer did!! I smile from ear to ear just thinking about how my parents went all out to make that memory so special for us, something I'll never forget and can't WAIT to pass onto Noah (already asked my Dad to draw the plate, like the good old days!)
