when you were a child, did you try to catch santa leaving presents?

Guilty as charged! I think most children do this my friend and this young cub certainly wasn't any different, although I would sit up and watch out of the window, that way my parents didn't know I was up and if I heard them coming up the stairs I would pretend to be asleep, my bed was beside the window so I didn't need to get out of bed just as well they couldn't hear my footsteps on the floor above!!! But I never got a glimpse of Rudolph or the reindeer pulling the sleigh! I was always disapppointed!

hi eaforeman! honestly, i don't remember trying to catch santa claus. i did have gifts under the tree but what i can remember was that, it seemed i already knew that it was my parents who gave me the presents and not santa claus. hmmm....so i guess they already told me early on that santa claus really did not exist. hehe but it is okay because they tried as much to give me presents during christmas anyway. and we always had a tree and i get to put up my stocking too, which they fill up the next day. good day and God bless you!

Yes, I use to stay awake to try and see Santa. he always came and drank the milk and ate the candy buckeyes that were left for him.

I've never try that before. My family do not celebrate Christmas, and since young, I already knew Santa Claus doesn't really exist, so I've never done that before. But I think it'd be fun if I did that. I always imagine it's so nice to hang the sock on my bed, and waiting for the Santa to give me some gifts.

When I was real little I know I always went to bed but was up really early, it would still be dark out when I would wake my parents up. I don't recall ever trying to catch Santa. I knew he always eat my cookies I left out for him and the milk was gone.
