Why Does Santa Gave Us Presents?
Yesterday night on our way home after dropping No.1 at her tuition center, we saw “Santa Clause” giving out sweets presents at a petrol kiosk. The excited Mummy quickly put on the indicator and turn in to the petrol kiosk. It is not about the presents. It is the joy seeing Santa! And only Mummy will do such things. If it were Daddy, possibly he will pretend…
- not to notice Santa
- over shoot
- lie to kids Santa has ran out of presents
- all of the above
The million dollar question from Baby Princess, “Why does Santa gave us presents, Mummy?”
It took me 2 seconds to answer her this *ahem* *sing*, “Long Time Ago In Bethlehem, So The Holy Bible Says, Mary’s boy child, Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day. *stop singing* When Jesus Christ was born, the Wise man present gifts to Jesus. So during Christmas Day, we give presents to people we love as an appreciation.”
Baby Princess just kept quiet. Don’t know how much she understand but the crazy Mummy suddenly get the hang of the song and kept singing the same phrase over and over again till we reached home.
Have A Blessed Christmas with good tidings.

why does santa give presents? hmm… because the retailers want to get rich and the parents want to spoil their kids… 😀
