Santa above has been in touch with me for years.  He spends most all of the season leading up to the "dash away all" and the reindeer flight in helping other folks feel better.  Many of these folks are kids in hospitals. Santa always visits, gives them a stuffed 'love bear" to hold and is on his way to see old folks who can't get out any more.  He doesn't mind his face being on Renderosity at all...he wants someone to smile because of it.  

I had to get back here and say these few words about the Santa I know quite well.  Yes, it is Christmas night and Christmas morning surprises but for Santa it is much more than that one day.

Yes, he is short, he is round, his beard is his beard and he does chuckle, too., shaking like a bowl full of jelly.  :  )
