When's It Best to Break the News about Santa?
Should you lie through your teeth as long as possible, or 'fess up at the first hint of doubt? Tell us what you think the right time is.
As a child, we can all remember the palpable anticipation the night of Christmas Eve, trying to calm down enough to get some shuteye. The same goes for parents.

MARC Teams With Santa for Puppy Delivery
The Milwaukee Animal Rescue Center helped Jeffrey the Dog find a home with two unsuspecting children at Southridge Mall on Thursday.
The Milwaukee Animal Rescue Center, with some help from Santa Claus, pulled off a Christmas surprise on a grand scale Thursday at Southridge Mall. After meeting with parents interested in adopting a puppy for their two young children, both of whom had asked for a dog in letters to Santa, MARC officials found a match in a young puppy named Jeffrey. What's more, MARC arranged for the children, who thought they were coming to Southridge Mall to get their picture taken with Santa, to receive their new dog while sitting on Santa's lap. Check out the YouTube video of the heartwarming event!
