A few weeks ago the subject of Santa came up at dinner, and, after trying to explain the idea of "he knows if you've been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake," this was how the conversation went.
Alex: How does he know everything?
Me (grasping at how to answer this question for a five-year-old): Santa is special.
Alex: It sounds like he's fake. Doesn't it?
Then, last week our Y had a Santa for the kids and the time coincided with Alex's swim lessons, so he had his first visit to Santa experience. When Santa asked Alex what he wanted for Christmas, he said that he didn't know but it was on his list.
