Santa needed writing help this week, we answered

‘Twas the week before Christmas, and you wouldn’t believe, the McCauley Communications Team got an email from the Jolly Man himself with a new trick up his sleeve! Santa wants to share what goes into preparing for the biggest Holiday of the Year! Join us and Santa for the countdown to Christmas Day! As told to Social Media Manager Loren McCauley.

Day 1: December 17 - Preparations Begin

Happy Holidays, My Dear Friends! There’s only one week until I embark on my annual Christmas Eve journey and I couldn't sleep a wink last night! I was up reading “A Christmas Carol“ to soothe my nerves. We plan and prepare for Christmas all year, but there is always something else to do! You would think that after a few thousand years, this would be a breeze, but Santa still gets nervous!  

The elves are busy in the workshop, crafting toys with utmost care. Mrs. Claus, the heart and soul of our operation, ensures that everyone is fueled with warm hot cocoa to keep their spirits high. I take mine with a shot of espresso these days!

This year I wanted to do something special. We could all use a bit more Christmas Cheer with the Earth in such disarray. So I wanted to give you all a glimpse of what goes into the week leading to Christmas. I bet it’s more than you think! But what’s more, I wanted to remind you all of the magic of Christmas. This season isn’t just about me, Rudolph, or receiving gifts.

It is about spending time with your loved ones, reminiscing about the year you’ve had and the lessons you all have learned, and spreading more loving kindness throughout your communities. I can only do my job because people like you still carry the spirit and magic of this Holiday. Happy Holidays!

Love,

Santa
