Tom Perrotta Quotes

Unburdening, She'd Told Laurie About A Vision She'd Had When She Was Four Or Five Years Old. Unable To Sleep On Christmas Eve, She'd Tiptoed Downstairs And Seen A Fat Bearded Man Standing In Front Of Her Family's Tree, Checking Items Off A List. He Wasn't Wearing A Red Suit - It Was More Like A Blue Bus Driver's Uniform - But She Still Recognized Him As Santa Claus. She Watched Him For A While, Then Snuck Back Upstairs, Her Body Filled With An Ecstatic Sense Of Wonder And Confirmation. As A Teenager, She Convinced Herself That The Whole Thing Had Been A Dream, But It Had Seemed Real At The Time, So Real That She Reported It To Her Family The Next Morning As A Simple Fact. They Still Jokingly Referred To It That Way, As Though It Were A Documented Historical Event - The Night Meg Saw Santa.
