"Today was a blessing"

Today was an incredible day. We were blessed with Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus today. They came to my work at the assistant living facility, where we took pictures, laughed, cried and each of us was blessed with a miracle. Believe it or not folks, but the real Santa Clause was here. I never believed in Santa until today. Seven years ago from today this ordinary man was hit by a truck. But by him being hit by this truck on this particular day, he saved 6 small children. He was clinically dead and upon returning to his mundane life, he came back as Santa Clause and that is who he is from his head to his toes, to the depths of his soul. Three months earlier Santa ran out of gas in his 1928 mold T ford right in front of our building, and today we had the honor by his presence. He brought a huge bag of stuffed animals, and every single one of them were different. He reached in what he called his "God Bag" and pulled out the perfect one for each of the residents and for all the staff. He stayed longed after the pictures were done and toys were given, and told us stories of miracles. He told us how where ever he went he always had just enough toys and candy canes, and that even when he was down to the last toy that somehow there was always more if needed. I cried and had my own little miracle siting between Santa and Mrs. Santa, for my 5 years old little girl within got a chance to have a wonderful memory of Santa Claus, one she had forgotten so long ago. It was a blessing, and it was a perfect day. WOW! There is a Santa Clause, can you believe it!
