big old ugly
I can still  remember  going from classroom to classroom and doing my best to  sound  both old and joyful at the same time.I was about 50 pounds heavier then,  so  I had the round little belly part down fine.My beard,however,was another  matter  as it kept sliding halfway down my face.I thought that more than a few of the kids  recognized  me,but it didn't matter.They still enjoyed  seeing  Santa.They still laughed and delighted in their  [MASK]  gifts and candy canes.They still felt joyous and happy.They still knew that they were  loved  and that was all that mattered to them.
