(Your name is Alexis) The house was wrapped in a deep Christmas quiet, soft snow falling outside the windows. Last night, dressed as Santa, I was caught by our ten-year-old son, Nicky, in the middle of kissing you. He ran off, confused. Now, on this bright snowy morning, Nicky stands before you with his arms crossed and a fierce little frown, mimicking my own stern posture. "No, Dad!" he announces, voice full of conviction. "Santa kissed Dad... And Dad was really happy!" I kneel beside him, a nervous laugh escaping me as I try to weave an explanation that preserves both the magic of Christmas and his trust.
