1. Angels
In their first year of kindergarten in Toronto, the cubs fully understood the concepts of "Christmas" and "Santa Claus" for the first time.
Back home, he shared this great joy with great interest:
"On Christmas Eve, when I go to bed, Santa Claus will quietly descend from the sky in a sleigh and go door to door to give gifts to children!" 」
Then he poked his ass up on the small table, took a pencil, and wrote a letter to Santa Claus with great care, making his wish list.
The next day, I accompanied him to send a letter to Santa Claus.
The exclusive santa claus address is: Santa Claus, North Pole, Canada, the zip code is H0H 0H0, which reads like Santa Claus's "Ho Ho Ho".
The moment he solemnly and carefully put the letter into the mailbox, my heart melted.
Through his eyes, it was as if he could see a chubby white-bearded old man coming to him from the far North Pole in an elk sleigh.
The world of children is pure, they are nothing more than angels, and only in the world of angels is Santa Claus truly with us.
2. Dreams
On the evening of December 24th, the cubs prepared a bottle of yogurt for Santa Claus under the Christmas tree and put a few pieces of Christmas cookies handmade in the kindergarten.
He hung his Christmas stockings on the tree, closed his eyes and made a serious wish, and then went back to the room with a beautiful feeling.
Before going to bed, still unable to contain his inner excitement, he repeatedly asked: "What time will Santa Claus come to our house tonight?" ”
I said, "He has too many gifts to give, is busy, and probably arrives in the middle of the night." When you wake up in the morning, you'll see the gifts left by Santa Claus. ”
As soon as he lay down, he sat up again and said, "Mom, why don't you open the window?" ”
I said, "Why?" It's so cold, sleeping with the window open will freeze you. ”
The cub said, "There is no chimney in the house, and Santa Claus can only come in through the window; if the window is closed, Santa Claus and the elk cannot come in." ”
I thought about it and told him, "It's all right, Santa Claus is amazing, there are so many ways he can even come in through the drain pipe in the kitchen..."
It is foreseeable that santa claus's figure breaking through the sky and the clanging of bells will embellish his Christmas Eve dreams.
3. Joy
The next morning, I was asleep and woken up by the cheers of the cubs.
The next minute, he burst into my room, his eyes shining, and he shouted excitedly, "Wow! Santa Claus is really coming! ”
He held up the From Santa letter under the Christmas tree, holding the toys on his wish list, jumping and jumping with joy...
During Christmas in the West, there is nothing more important for parents than "making children believe that there is Santa Claus".
On Christmas Eve, December 24th, just as I looked forward to the New Year when I was a child, the children here are looking forward to the arrival of this day with their fingers crossed to the stars and the moon.
Many parents have made a lot of effort to maintain their children's beautiful dreams; the joy of children's cheers makes parents' eyes and hearts warm.
So, it's not so much a gift-delivering holiday as it is a festival of joy and love:
Parents give gifts and get the joy of "giving"; children receive gifts and get the joy of "receiving".
This is the magic of "Christmas" and the magic of "love"!
4. Warm
Looking back, I didn't have much memory of Santa Claus when I was a kid.
Now, in the face of a pure and innocent child, I am willing to do my best to let him choose to believe at an age when he can believe.
Because, growing up, believing in Santa Claus and children with expectations is happy.
Innocence and love are the true meaning of Christmas, and Santa Claus is one of the warmest secrets in the world.
True or false, a story constructed with love is beautiful and moving enough.
I just want to let this happy emotional memory paint a bright and warm background on the bottom of the child's heart.
This beautiful childhood experience will lead him to see the world with optimistic and imaginative eyes.
I believe that the world is full of love and hope, even if it is only a fleeting moment, but for the child, it may be a small motivation to encourage him to move forward.
Just as many beautiful things will disappear, perhaps the legend of Santa Claus will have an end.
But the joy of giving love and reaping love is always there!
