Make-believes
Santa Claus was one of my brother's and my favorite make-
believes. It was speculated that on a full-mooned Christmas Eve
night, any one could see Santa and his reindeers galloping across
the sky, en route to making their rounds to the nice boys and girls
in time for Christmas morning.
Submitter comment: We really believed in Santa. Those were the good old days.
