I have to giggle at this article because it reminds of something I heard on the radio this morning. I am not sure what prompted a 5 and 3 year old boy to call 911 and insist on talking to the chief of police and Santa all at the same time, but they sure got a talking to when the police arrived at their home a half hour later. Apparently the parents knew nothing of the incident and were in another room when the call was made. All I can say is this. They must have been on the naughty list and wanted to explain their side before Xmas got here. Made for good giggle on a cold morning.
