it being christmas eve and all, ledger's first concern was about santa! now, diana and i have never pushed the story of santa on him. before he was even born diana and i had a talk about how we would deal with santa for any children we might have. i was firm in the fact that i do not want to lie to my child, so i wasn't going to pretend it was real. i didn't grow up believing in santa so that fib was never a part of my life. diana grew up on the other side of that and wanted our boy to have some of that magic in his life like she did. i've stuck by my conviction, but ledge really loves the santa thing, so we go with it. he has asked several times if santa is real and my answer for him has always been 'he's as real as mickey mouse', and that's been enough to satisfy him. one of the things he really wanted to do on christmas eve was to leave a cookie and milk out for santa. no problem little fella, i am kinda hungry anyway...
