But this year, THIS YEAR, I know that there really is a Sandy Claws... First, because I saw him at the Bay Head Fire house immediately after we sang "Here comes Santa Claus" (twice); he drove up in, conveniently, a Bay Head Fire Engine and gave me not one but TWO candy canes. Clearly I've been a good little girl this year.
Second proof that he exists: I was sitting in my in-laws' living room, which faces the bay in Bay Head, talking animatedly to my sister about smurf puzzles and college savings funds. Suddenly I saw, rowing smoothly through sun dappled water, the big man himself, clearly enjoying himself after the stress of a night of delivering goodies to all the boys and girls of the world. Needless to say, I hung up most immediately and snagged this awesome shot with my celly:
So, he really does exist, and obviously rowed his way to bring socks and sweaters and recipe books and gadgets to the McApplegate family. Now you know!
