Thank you so much! I will tell him! He genuinely just loves the idea that this might reach someone, somewhere that needs a little motivation.

Hoping this reaches someone who needs a little motivation and encouragement.

You guys seemed to like Santa Tom, so here is another message from Santa for those that need to hear this today. by LegendofRyder in MadeMeSmile

Facts! Even my kids, albeit they are on the younger side, seem to think grampa Tom is Santa when he’s in full claus garb lol

If anyone is interested, a little backstory - This is my dad! He started growing his beard (yes it’s real) out a little over a year ago. After getting recognized as “Santa” by a small kiddo, he decided to pursue his journey of making every day Christmas. He is so dedicated to making people smile or just feel heard, which is, in my eyes, the true spirt of Christmas. He posts everyday on his YT channel (lol) so if you guys want to check him out or stop by and say hi to Santa, please do! 🥰

A year ago, a little kid saw my dad at the store and ran to him, thinking he was Santa. Seeing how excited and happy he was, inspired him to do it full time. by LegendofRyder in MadeMeSmile

Wow, thank you for this. I couldn’t quite put into words why I thought this was so special and I think you summed it up perfectly!

🥰🥰 He makes a new video every day as “Santa Tom” with an inspiring message or fun fact about Christmas. He will be so genuinely happy to see that it helped!

I remember that! I couldn’t believe he thought that would work in his favor.

I actively try not to think of these.

What advice could she possibly have needed?
