Darin,

Not at all. It's true that more kids mentioned "Santa," but a few also made references to "Baby Jesus." I'm running all of their comments as a three part series this week, and the one reference to Jesus was actually a "tease" for today's segment. In the story that airs this morning, we finish up with Santa, then the kids let loose with their interpretations of the First Christmas.

Hope you get a chance to listen!

Mr. Calvert-

Ref: Story http://www.komotv.com/stories/34469.htm

I'm happy to see you didn't leave out at least one kid's comments re: the 'real' reasons behind what Christmas is. Did any of the kids mention "Jesus" by name? If so, was that left out/edited from the piece? I'm honestly not trying to 'beat ya up' - just genuinely curious.

Thanks for your story - it was very cute.

Respectfully,

I heard this story on the radio (1000 AM) this morning... about four kids talking about Baby Jesus, and how he laid in a "cow plate" or something like that! Funny!
