Today, I am watching NORAD's Santa Tracker. It is quite interesting. There are photos of showing something in some of the countries he visits. If you click on the photo, it tells you interesting things about the country.
Do I believe that there is a man in a red suit driving a sleigh with eight tiny reindeer with another leading?
Of course not, but I do believe in the spirit of giving and sharing with others. I think that Santa personifies the spirit of giving. It is just fun to track him.
What do you think?

When my two kids were little, we would track Santa on the NORAD radar every Christmas. You could just see the bewilderment in their eyes as the radar showed Santa getting closer and closer to where we lived! It was also a great way to get the kids in bed early, as I always told them Santa wouldn't come if they were awake!

@moffittjc That is a great memory. Who knows? Maybe she really did see him.

@akalinus My mom got us good when my brother and I were little, but on the verge of being that age where we stopped believing in Santa Clause. We were driving home from a family holiday gathering on Christmas Eve, and on the drive home my dad said something about that he heard on the radio that Santa was already delivering presents in our area. So my brother and I were looking out the window down every street we passed hoping to catch a glimpse of Santa. Then all of a sudden my mom shouted, "I saw him! He was on the street we just passed! Stop the car. We have to go back. I saw Santa Clause!" Of course, my brother and I started freaking out, and yelling "Go back, we want to see Santa's sleigh!" but my dad was like, "We have to hurry up and get home before he skips our house." I was never so nervous or excited in my life. My mom just kept saying the whole rest of the way home, "I can't believe I really saw Santa Clause!" My brother and I were believers for many more years after that episode. Well played, mom. Well played! lol
