Santa in June?!?!?!?

OH GOODNESS!!! We had to run to the comissary this weekend for some grocery shopping (that is the Marine Base grocery store) and in the parking lot Benson spotted a man in jean shorts and white shirt who he BELIEVED WAS Santa Clause. Well we saw him a few times in the Comissary and each time Benson said, "Mommy, that is Santa from the Mall.... I remember!" I just thought because the man was bigger and had the white beard and hair Benson just thought he was Santa. Well when we were ready to check out we got in line and just happened to get behind this man "Santa" and his wife. Benson and Britton were besides themselves with seeing Santa in the summer. Finally Benson got up the nerve and pulled on the back of this man's shirt and whisperd, "excuse me?" The man turned around, smiled and said, "Son, do you know who I am?" Benson and Britton smiled and together said, "YOU ARE SANTA CLAUSE!" Well the man WAS the Santa from the Mall and Benson KNEW he was. The man was so sweet and played the role perfectly. Telling the boys he remembered them and that he has been watching them. Asking them if they have been good boys and what they have been up to. This lasted a good 15 minuets and I wish I could have had my camera to capture just how presious Benson and Britton were talking to "SANTA in June!" Right before "Santa" and Mrs. Clause started putting their items on the counter to be checked out Benson had one final thing to say to "Santa." He looked at him and in a VERY SERIOUS voice he told him, "Santa I know who you REALLY are.... you are Jesus's helper!" The man smiled, looked at Dan and myself and said, "God bless you for teaching your child what Christmas is truely about!" It made me feel so good inside to know that even though Benson is five years old and he loves Santa, he knows who "Santa" really is!
