Has Anyone Ever Spotted Santa?

Some also push their beds closer to the windows. This is because they want to see Santa pass by as he swoops through the neighborhood. Some even put Santa's food next to their windows to see if they'll spot him when he comes to eat.
However, Santa's magic has proven to be very powerful. It seems as if he comes and leaves in a flash because Santa's magic makes it so that children who wait up on Christmas Eve are never able to see him.
So How Do We Know How Tall Santa Is?
Santa wanted his mission to be a secret right from the beginning. His desire was to teach the world about giving for giving’s sake, so he never wanted to take any credit.
Even so, Santa’s Christmas mission was so special that he couldn’t stop people from wanting to show their gratitude for his kindness. Since then, many people have met Santa Claus on his journeys and several of them have taken or drawn pictures of how Santa looks.

Why Doesn’t Santa Want You to Catch Him on Christmas Eve?
Many children wonder why they talk with Santa when it’s time to take Christmas pictures, but they can’t catch him on Christmas Eve. If people already know who Santa is and what he looks like, why does he use magic to make sure kids don’t see him on Christmas Eve?
Well, the simple answer is that Santa is so busy on Christmas Eve that, even though he would like to talk to every good boy and girl, he simply doesn’t have the time. Santa and his reindeer have to work their absolute hardest to complete their Christmas mission every year, so aside from stopping to eat some milk and cookies, Santa can’t afford to spare a single second if he’s going to make sure that every good boy and girl have presents under the tree on Christmas morning.
If you’re planning on staying up on Christmas Eve to catch Santa, you’d be better off leaving him a note with his milk and cookies, because thanks to Christmas magic, he’s going to be in and out of your house in a flash!
