Santa Pictures
Ask any child about Santa and their eyes widen and sparkle and a smile erupts on their face. He brings presents! He has reindeer! He flies in a sleigh! But ask that same child to sit on Santa’s lap (at least if they live in my house) and suddenly Santa is a scary, intimidating character….

The house I grew up in As much as I loved my elementary school and as much as I loved the friends and the home I’d grown up with, when sixth grade rolled around I was ready to move on. In 1986, my family found a house in Pleasanton, California, just 45 minutes from San…
This Is the Last, I Swear
