Secret Santa Diaries

Playing Secret Santa is fun…

Knowing how much someone enjoys your gifts (in my case, I am sending IOUs to my "Angel" since I am not physically present at the location) gives you such a warm feeling deep inside.

The best part is that the Angel does not know who you are or where you're from – so the happiness, one can hope, is from genuine pleasure rather than any obligation to be polite.

Let me share part of a conversation my Angel's friend forwarded to me (yes! Secret Santa needs all the helpers she can get!!) and you'll see what I mean!

 

Angel[3:08 PM]:

 I got another IOU from my Santa

 this time a teddy

‎‎Santa's Helper[3:08 PM]:

 via ***?

 vow

‎‎Angel[3:08 PM]:

 nobody gave me a teddy before...I'm so happy  whenever i get it

 no...from "Santa's other friend"

‎‎Santa's Helper[3:09 PM]:

‎‎Angel[3:10 PM]:

 the last time i got a teddy was from dad when i was a small kid.....after that I never got any teddy in my life from anyone!!!...just imagine!!

‎‎Santa's Helper[3:10 PM]:

‎‎Angel[3:12 PM]:

‎‎Santa's Helper[3:16 PM]:
