I ran downstairs and I saw a fat man in a red suit stuck in the chimney! He got out of the chimney with his magic! I got some cookies and milk. I went up to Santa and I said, "You arc not real!" Santa said, "That's what all the children say." Santa took the cookies and milk. He ate all the cookies and drank all of the milk. I said to him,"Please tell me one gift I got!" Santa answered, "You will find out tomorrow! Go to bed!" That's how I came to believe in Santa.
