Honestly, it was devastating. I was such a believer - as a matter of fact, I KNOW I saw him fly out the window once after leaving gifts. So, when I heard the noise downstairs the following year, I had to peek. And I'll be darned if it wasn't my parents putting out gifts with different wrapping! Wrapping paper that wasn't the same as the rest of the gifts. I must have gasped, because my mom told me to go upstairs! I prayed all night that, when I woke up, there would be more gifts with different wrapping paper...because then that would mean that Santa WAS real. But instead, there was nothing new...and I knew he was not real... I am still traumatized over it :-) just kidding! Merry Christmas! I learned about Santa when I was 7. Honestly, it was devastating.
