*~*~*    *~*~*    *~*~* "Christmas Legends" *~*~*    *~*~*    *~*~*       Welcome! Come and sit a spell with me! Settle back, get a cup of coffee and enjoy your visit:-) *~*~*    *~*~*    *~*~* Recently I was curious about the origin of our present day Christmas celebrations, so I surfed and found many sites, each offering long and wordy pages of reading. I almost gave up on my idea of making this page, then .... like a bolt of lghtning, a thought came to me ... Why not present them as simple answers to a child's questioning of ... "How" -- "Whnt" -- "Why" ... that all parents must have been asked at one time or another :-) The bullets below will guide you on your journey to my presentation of some of the legends. Or if you prefer to select for yourself, use the arrow to return here. *~*~*    *~*~*    *~*~* To begin we will start with Santa Claus ...
