Tiptoe Santa FFF

 


 I am here with Tiptoe Santa, to tell you a tale.

 Christmas, 1965.
I wasn't even alive.
My human brother was 10 months old
when Mama found a deal worth real gold.
A Santa for Davids 1st Christmas, only 99 cents,
that's less than a dollar.
Well bless my collar.
What a deal, it was almost a steal.
Tiptoe Santa is much older than me,
much older than I will ever be.
He is 57 this year and still standing tall.
Bye now, that is All.


Joining auntie Yam for Final Friday Feature, the 12th and Last of 2022. 

Mama has a story at MadSnapper for you.

Something about a barber and a hair cut.

It is not to late to join the fun, post it tomorrow. click on Final Friday Feature for the Rulez

I don't remember him! Only the climbing ladder Santa and the salt & pepper Santa!

We love this story, but are concerned that, as tiptoe Santa ages he might, like so many two-leggers, start losing his ability to balance...

Doesn't he look cheerful about his advancing age ....

What a wonderful Christmas treasure. We are sure it has brought more than 99 cents worth of joy! Lee and Phod whose Lady has a tree with ornaments she has been collecting since she was born in 75

Do you think Santa tiptoes through houses to leave presents for children? I think he does.

Wowwzers! 57 years old and Santa is still alive and smiling! The oldest ornament left here is from 1974! Your Santa is quite the wonder!
