    Hello @Elsa . Nice thread. Thanks for the tag @Diamond Lim .

    I believed in Santa Claus all my life. My siblings hung stockings believing it was Santa who gave all the good stuff. We put up a Belen which is a symbol of Jesus Christ' s nativity. Christmas for me is everyday. To forgive and forget.

    If I were a kid again, I would love to climb trees which I am good at. I didn't play with dolls, all I had were slingshot and wooden tops which my mother's students made for me. I'd love to skin my knees again .

    Me encantó tu dinámica @Elsa


    Cuando deje de creer? Cuando tenía 7 años mi primo me dijo que Santa no existía y yo fui y les dije a mis papás que sabía que no era real 😞 así que ese año Santa no me trajo nada y fue la peor navidad de mi vida, hoy estoy convencida de que todos deberíamos tener una ilusión y eso es justo lo que Santa representa.

    Si volviera a ser niña que me gustaría?

    Hacer todo eso que por miedo no viví... Subirme a un árbol, caerme de la bicicleta o los patines... Reir sin importar el que dirán.

    Actually I also don't remember when I stopped believing all these things ! 😁

    But still waiting for santa in childhood was really amazing 😙

    If I got a chance to enter in my childhood again I won't give up to make mud palace ( I never made a perfect and beautiful castle 😅)

    Thank you for responding @Suzanne_Mel. I am going to translate what you wrote.

    When I stop believing When I was 7 years old my cousin told me that Santa did not exist and I went and told my parents that I knew it was not real 😞 so that year Santa did not bring me anything and it was the worst Christmas of my life, today I am convinced that that we should all have an illusion and that is just what Santa represents.
    If I were to be a girl again, what would I like to do?
    Do all that I did not live out of fear ... Climb a tree, fall off my bicycle or rollerblades ... Laugh no matter what they say.

    ¡Gracias por compartir!

    Your stories are great @Elsa. I love reading them so much.

    I don't know when my phase was, where I had less imagination and became more "reasonable". My parents told me that as a big sister I had taken on responsibility at a very early age. Perhaps this is the case with the oldest children of a family. You had already written a very instructive story about it.

    I think I found out when I was 8 years old that my father or uncle always played Santa Claus. Of course, I only told my grandmother. I saw that the others were always happy when Santa stood in front of the door and had a big bag of presents with him. 

    We always try to celebrate Christmas with some family members. Before the pandemic, we were all together for Christmas. The last two years unfortunately only to a limited extent. 

    When I then see how the children / grandchildren unwrap their gifts and rejoice, I feel transported back to my childhood.
