Summary
UPDATED 1/3/2026 with an epilogue nobody asked for!
"Ellie is asking Santa to make it snow for Christmas." Joel blinks at her. Is that all he thinks? Sarah raises her eyebrows to emphasize that she's serious.
"Well, I hope she's asking for other stuff, specifically a Jurassic Park Lego set," Joel replies, unsure what else she thinks he can do about that.
Sarah exhales loudly, "Dad! You don't understand; what if she stops believing in Santa when it doesn't snow on Christmas? What if that is what breaks her belief? Can you live with that?"
Joel scrubs his hand over his face. "Baby, she's 5, but she's not dumb; she knows it doesn't snow much here. She probably said that trying to make a joke."
Sarah shakes her head forcefully, curls flying. "No, I think she's serious. If she's already questioning Santa, and then it doesn't snow on Christmas, that may be what convinces her he's not real. I'm not letting that happen." She crosses her arms and sets her jaw in determination.
"What are you going to do?" Joel asks, slightly concerned.
"I don't know yet," she admits, "but I'm not letting her stop believing."Ellie asks Santa to make it snow for Christmas, in Texas. It all goes from there.
