A Female Santa

Santa Claus Now that Christmas has become irrelevant but is a commercial success story, isn`t it time we have a female Santa. The first Santa I saw as a toddler was the neighbour a rather stout lady, with a false beard she was Santa, I hid behind my mother who whispered don`t be frightened it is Mrs Strom, which disappointed me, I wanted so very much to believe. Going home, it was snowing, and I asked: is there a real Santa mum, is he a friend of Jesus? Not wanting to disappoint me she said something about beliefs and faith, of which I understood nothing, but I had the feeling they were make-believe, and that was ok for me.
