🎅✨ Ho ho ho, ladies and gentlemen… it’s THURSDAY! ✨🎅 What are you grateful for today? Santa Papa John is feeling thankful for friendships, small life changes, and how those little shifts can bring big happiness. 📆 336 days till Christmas — and yes folks, the joy continues all year long. Last night’s Storytime had people giggling, smiling, and even craving cookies 🍪 (true story — a doctor and psychologist said the stories felt so real they wanted to eat what Santa was describing!). But here’s the heart of today’s message ❤️ The little things matter. 🇺🇸 See a veteran today? Thank them for their service. Thank them for their sacrifice. 👵 See a senior? Ask how they’re doing. Open a door. Carry a bag. Share a smile. 💬 Words can inspire. Thoughts can provoke. But only action moves you closer to your dreams. One step at a time. One bite at a time. One positive action today. Because hard work pays off. Persistence pays off. And if you keep showing up — you win. 🎅 Santa loves you. Do something kind today. That smile you share might change more than you know. Ho ho ho

Ho, ho, ho folks — it’s Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday! ❄️🎄 A fresh dusting of snow, a brand-new day, and yes… 338 days till Christmas (because Santa never stops counting 😉). Today’s message is simple but powerful: step out of your own way. How many times have we been one thought, one choice, or one brave step away from opening the next door? Today’s the day to flip that switch, move forward, and choose happy over grumpy. Santa’s doing it — and he’s inviting you to do it too. Let’s carry a bag for a senior, open a door for someone behind us, and share a smile with someone we don’t even know. Those little moments? They change lives. And to our veterans, thank you for your service and sacrifice — you are always in Santa’s heart. ❤️ To our seniors, thank you for the stories, the wisdom, and the joy you bring when we simply stop and listen. Today, we’re changing attitudes one smile at a time — starting with our own. Choose cheerful. Choose positive. Create some giggles. Santa believes in you. 🎅✨ Ho ho ho!

Alright folks, Santa’s got a fun one for you… What makes you smile? What makes you giggle? What song instantly takes you back and puts you in a good mood the second it starts playing? Yep… we’re talking 90s music! 😄 Was it country that had you singing at the top of your lungs? Rap that got your head bobbin’? Pop that made you crank the volume and dance like nobody was watching? Santa doesn’t care what style it is—if it makes you smile, it counts. Drop your favorite 90s song in the comments and let’s build a feel-good playlist together. Music has a funny way of unlocking memories, laughter, and those “man, life was good” moments. Let’s share them and spread a little joy today. Santa can’t wait to see what you choose… and who knows, you might remind someone of a song they forgot they loved. 🎧✨ Ho ho ho—Santa loves you ❤️🎄
