I smiled as I read your story. I, too, had the fun of playing Santa Clause but my costume came equipped with a big pillow to be held up with the pants by the big black belt. There’s something very special about bringing that much delight to people- in my case it was adults not children - and still it was fun. More sharing in each others’ traditions, even to the point of role swapping - is not such a bad idea after all! Louise
Do you know that for 4-5 years in a row I played Santa at the GSPP annual Christmas party? Even bought a Santa suit. I had pretty much the same thoughts and feelings as you.
