I grew up being told about Santa, and believing it for a time. I don't think of the Santa/Tooth Fairy/Easter Bunny stories as lies, and I will tell my daughter to be good for Santa, and put her lost teeth under her pillow, and to find the eggs the Easter Bunny hid. I will also enjoy watching her anticipation and wonder as she lives through the experiences that I so fondly remember.
