039. Christmas Spirit
Kenneth and Leslie raised their kids to have Christmas spirit. They do all the Christmas traditions, everything from decorating the house with lights to putting a star on top of the Christmas tree.
The kids even think that Santa Claus is real. This all changed when Kenneth and Leslie’s son, Thomas, saw Kenneth put a bunch of Christmas presents under the Christmas tree late at night.
Thomas gasped. He was upset that his parents lied to him. “Mom, Dad, why didn’t Santa come this year? I saw you two putting gifts under the tree,” he said. Kenneth and Leslie looked at each other with worries.
“Well, son, the truth is, Santa didn’t have time to put them under the tree, so he gave them to me and your mom,” Kenneth said. Leslie was impressed with her husband’s ability to come up with a lie so quickly.
“You know, a lot of kids at school say that Santa isn’t real,” Thomas said. “Well, they’re lying, honey. They just want to make you feel bad,” Leslie said.
“Really? Well, can you prove it by bringing me to Santa Claus?” Thomas asked. “Well, we can bring him to you,” Kenneth said. An hour later, Kenneth entered the house in a Santa Claus costume.
