for me it was when i was about 5 or 6 and my brother said santa was his bestfriend. i said if he were then show me him. he walked into the family room and showed me a picture of my parents, he said they were santa...that there wasnt really one. i think i cried..but pretended not to know for years so i could get presents...im cheeky.... When and how did you find out the truth?

Honestly I never believed in Santa. My family all came from Italy and they didn't teach Santa. To tell the truth though, I believe in the SPIRIT of Santa. That benevolence (sp?)is just an awesome force, you know?

I babble a lot! - blah blah blah !!!
I was about 6 I think. Mom always made cookies of some type. She'd leave them out in a can with a gift tag for Santa. I woke up hungry as all get up. You guessed it. The can got opened, gift tag tossed out, warpping paper all over the kitchen floor. Mom heard the rruffling of the gift wrap and caught me. She said something like...."Bob those were for dad when he woke...I mean for Santa. HAHAHAHA! I said, I knew daddy was Santa mom. Now you don't have to lie like I do. I lied a lot as a little child. I'd eat the Oreo cooies having chocolate all around my lips & tell mom & dad, I didn't eat them. HAHA! I thought seeing you're a good friend of marian_o9 I'd drop in, read a little, maybe respond and send a friends request. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!
