I never believed in Santa Claus. Our parents told us from the start that Santa wasn't real, the story of Santa originated with Saint Nicholas, and that he wasn't really going to bring us presents through the fireplace. lol.
Instead, we had Grandma Claus! Our grandma loooved shopping and spoiled us every year.
She died this past April.  I miss her every single day. I love her sooo sooo much & I know she loved us too. Christmas is going to be so sad without her... she always used to spend the night at our house on Christmas Eve. She loved watching us open our "Grandma Claus" presents, and I loved seeing the smile on her face as we opened them.
All I want for Christmas is my grandma back!!!
I'll just try to focus on the REAL reasons I celebrate CHRISTmas in the first place - God's amazing gift to us, and spending time with the rest of my family.
Oh I am so sorry  I so know how you feel,my dad and my grandparents are gone,and what I would REALLY want for Christmas would be my dad back and my grandparents.
