“Oh, Santa!” she cried, clutching the new doll and gazing at her magical dollhouse. “Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

As Mel spent her day lost in a world of imagination, her dreams had come true in a little town in Minnesota the moment she opened her eyes on Christmas morning.

I know, Life is hard. It’s hard. There are hardships and tragedies everywhere we look.

Because of this, we slowly allow our innocence, our imagination, and our voice to be hidden away. I know firsthand what it feels like to hide from your dreams. Trust me, I did this to myself for 20 years. It wasn't until I found myself in this red suit, with the world depending on me, that I realized: we're capable of so much more than we give ourselves credit for.

The truth is, every single child out there, every single one of them,... they all have greatness in them,

But the problem is, many people don't believe in themselves anymore.

It’s time to remind people that we believe in them, just as much as they believe in us.

It's time to spread cheer, that can LAST throughout the entire year.

“But know this: Addison is lucky to have a friend like you. Sometimes, when life gets tough, the best gift we can give is friendship—and you’re already doing that. I know you Emily, your kindness can move mountains.”

I pray for all kids an abundant life . But for these special children, I pray for God to give them what every child should have. A Family with Loving parents and Guardians. Children need someone to look up to, they need someone to show them the way in this difficult world.

“Joey, When kids get older, sometimes they forget about the magic they once believed in. I lose teenagers every year. Teenagers have so many thoughts going through their head that they tend to forget who they want to be. It’s just that life gets busy, they're trying to find their place in this world, and they may lose sight of what’s important. “

Anna was too young to talk, she could not walk, and she could barely hold up her head. She was looking right at me, when I felt a strange feeling. I sensed that Anna had powerful eyes, a Creative Mind, and she has a Giving Heart.

I love seeing a giving heart in children.

Hi I'm the creator of Box of Santa Stories. I never thought I'd be this person, making videos... sharing stories. I find it difficult to do anything that requires self-promotion, even just talking sometimes.

Nick grew a bit older, his beard turned gray then white. One night, he woke up to a bright light. Something clicked … a new dream appeared… Nick’s most important goal was clear. He wanted to help kids’ wishes come true. To accomplish that was the least he could do!

So he made a new plan to get back on track. He invented some gear, a red suit with a hat, a sleigh, and a sack.

He asked some friends to share in his cheer. They helped him find his flying reindeer. They made all the toys, all by themselves, I guess that’s why Santa named them his elves.
