FAQ about Santa Claus

Latelly I have been asked for many issues about Santa Claus. The girls have a lot of concerns about his procedures and "standars of operation". We don't have chimeney so they are really preocupied about how he is getting into the house, I've told them that he has a magic key, that he uses when people do not have chimeneys, a pretty common thing around the world, if you think that just south to the border and beyond people do not have chimeneys.

Another question is: if he uses this magical powder to sleep people, I had to say no. -See girls, imagine all the powder he will need for all the houses he visits, that sac would be as big as the presentes he brings-.

This year we are not traveling to Mexico as we do every year, and we spend Christmas either in my parent's house or Pepe's dad, and they never were as concern as this year, I think the excitment of the trip it self, distracts them from such thoughts. Another thing for us is that in my family, as in many homes in Mexico, the tradition is that the presents are brought by the little Jesus him-self or by the Three wise kings in January the 6th. I explained them that little Jesus sends Santa with the presentes to them. All part of our globalization.

We have had questions too, and it's funny what we all say as parents to keep the magic alive for them a little longer!
