So my father way my first Santa 24 years ago, and this year he was my little girls first Santa 💞

He is an ex policeman and has been playing Santa free of charge for the last 24 years now for schools, children's groups, special needs groups etc. Once my parents had me, my dad said he wanted to give some hot to as many children as he could. Not once has he been paid for a Santa job - although many of them now give him a bottle of wine as a thank you and he never turns it down 🙈 I love my father, kindest man I know 💞

ADDITION: This is a pic of him 'off duty' 😉 when she was a couple if weeks old, and also of her in her Christmas PJs that my MIL got for her!

He has to wear his hat so low as he is Italian and has big dark eyebrows unlike Santa. One year he put tipex on his eyebrows but he gets so hot in there, he started sweating, the tipex got in his eyes and he had to go for minor medical attention 🙈🤦‍♀️
