Santa or Jesus?

Luke has Santa confused with Jesus. We explained how Christmas was Jesus' birthday; but then when he heard us say that Santa brings presents to put under the tree for Christmas morning, he got really confused. Now, whenever he sees Santa, he says "Jesus!"

How do you explain the concept of Jesus to a 2-year-old? He knows that when we pray we ask Jesus for things, thank Jesus for blessing us, and that Jesus will bless those we love. He also knows that the big statue on the side of I-75 south down near Monroe is of Jesus.

He simply doesn't understand who this Santa guy is and how he fits into the picture. He won't go anywhere near him! It's funny.

Alanna thought that Santa was "Moses" and would get very upset if people tried to correct her. We didn't bother -- it's really cute for now, and she will figure it all out pretty soon...
