Comfort (Zone) and Joy
I think growing up, an actual Santa visited me and my brothers once. It was never a big part of our Christmas. But it was for my sister-in-law. She had a great idea to hire a Santa for our close family. I really would have not ever done this, but she convinced me. Heather found the most wonderful Santa. He was filled with Christmas joy, and just adored the kids. While taking their pictures, I felt like this was a really magical moment for them. Their faces were just alit when they saw him. We took the pictures at her house, and under the tree where my parents were married, which felt really special. I think a visit with Santa at their home will now be a Christmas tradition. So I’m glad I got out of my comfort zone to assist in making Christmas something wonderful for them.
