My dad was a policeman and lied to me.He helped me write the letters, then put them on the fire, they went straight up the chimney. Don't remember any chimney fires.I was 11 years old when I found out.My dads a policeman he doesn't lie I told the other kids. That was about the same time I stopped believing in god.I lived next door to the vicarage and went to church three times on Sunday.

Merry Christmas!
I've been torn, but decided it doesn't hurt to let kids have magic. Up to an appropriate age.
