Every once and a while a Mall Santa gets asked a big question.....

A few days before Christmas two years ago, a nine-year-old girl came to see me. She didn’t have a lot of items on her Christmas list, but she loved the warmth and security of sitting on my lap. She didn’t want to leave. Finally I asked her, “Is there anything else you would like to talk to Santa about?” She paused and answered, “Well yes, why do they call it Christmas?”
