GREAT story! Thank you. And with a nice little surprise at the end. 5 stars
This story is so special. Really tugs on the emotions. Thank you for sharing. 5*
That was a great story, a lot of emotion written sad and happy. Thanks for writing.
A feel good story that is really needed in these difficult times. 4* and I don't need to analyze this tale to say that this hit the spot!!!
Great story. I have read it many times. I read it to cheer me up
I have not gone through your total library but have you ever written spin-off from this one?
Jim, Maggie and Little Mary? Or Mrs. Claus?
10 stars is kinda close. Everybody needs somebody that loves them. Melissa found that someone. She calls him"my husband" and Timmy calls him,"daddy"!
I have got to compare this to Miracle on 34th Street. The twists were all your own, and that makes it yours. And just like the movie I got a little misty as well. An excellent story. The kind of story of the belief in Santa can mean more than anything. This story means a little more to me than most. My wife fell into the same situation as Timmy, except it was FIVE children. As I write this in October, I want to wish a Merry Christmas.
I just found this story, and I loved it. I ran out of Kleenex, now my shirt front is wet. Thank you for an honest tear jerker. I guessed what Timmie asked Santa for, and I was right. 5 Stars.
Thank you.
Schmaltzie. Coulda' been a 1930's movie, but I really enjoyed the story. I award you all five stars, both ears, and the tale!
I personally played the part of Stan, some forty-plus years ago, and Melissa and I are still happily together. Sadly, we are estranged from Timmy, and we don't know why. But life is like that, and you bring that element into your storytelling.
Thanks for the memories!
Damn it, now you did it!! Here I am in my late sixties and you went and made me cry. I loved this story and of course I gave it 5 stars. Christmas is indeed my favorite time of year, I just love giving gifts to people I care about. Christmas time spent with a young child certainly opens your heart up. Thank you for writing this fine story.
I'm proud to say that my family has 4 children that only one has my DNA, and many grandchildren. I couldn't live any of them more and thank God every day that he brought them to me.
10 stars are close. They all got what they needed, and it's called family. In today's world, this is a minor miracle...
Simply WONDERFUL!!
Damn…suddenly got really dusty in here…
Absolutely loved this and now want to hear about Jim, Mary, and Maggie!
Thankyou! I am an old man but it brought me to tears! Very good story!!! Please keep writting!
Didn't think I was going to like it as much as I did. You got me with the ending, again!
OMG That was a real tear jerker. For most of the story, I thought Stan was the person dressed up as santa. I kept expecting him to give Mom the picture of Timmy talking to Santa that she thought would just be thrown in the trash. Great ending! Thank you.
One of the best stories ever. It ranks right up there with your "Tattoos of the Soul", which is saying a lot!!! Beautiful story line and ending, especially from Santa's point of view...
Wonderful! A perfect Christmas story reminding us to believe in love.(And Santa!)
Wonderful and beautiful romantic story. Definitely a 5 star 🌠🌟🌠🌟🌠🌟🌠🌟🌠🌟. Merry Christmas to all from me. Ali from Singapore.
Touching, brought a tear to me eye, as the saying goes. A
whole story with an adult section. Which raised some wood too. Very well done.
Beautiful story. So sweet. Maybe with adoption or IVF Timmy can get a sibling.
Enjoyed it much. Heartwarming wonderful story. True Christmas spirit.
Damn allergies kept my eyes watering. I JUST LOVED this story. Thank you SO much.
Romance just rocks.
This is one of the few stories in the Romance heading I've read, or for that matter, anywhere. When I read the story, based on many factors, I assumed it was written by a female. But no matter which sex, the story was thoroughly enjoyable. The lack of overwhelming sex, descriptions of the male and female anatomy ad infinitum was a welcome relief. I guess from the above, I am male and one who enjoys many of the stories under the incest heading, though I've never participated in such, nor had ANY inclination to do so.
The gentleness of the kissing, caressing, and touching will hopefully point out to other readers that such writing as yours can be of a much greater enjoyment that page upon page of violent sex. The lack of a boatload of spelling error, improper English grammar, lack of continuity and flow makes your story much more enjoyable as the reader doesn't have to stop reading to contemplate the intent of the writer. But, you young man, are not just a writer, you are indeed an author. I will definitely have to read more of your stories.
Laughed as I cried, it was a great story with an absolutely prefect ending! Thank you for it
You just had to mention a possible new story! The Atlanta story sound really interesting!
BUT more I would have loved it more if the couple had hit the jack pot and conceived a baby against the odds. A little sister would have been perfect too.
A Christmas story about what is really important at Christmas time, family and faith. God bless and thank you for sharing this heartwarming story.
Thank you for what might be one of the best stories I have read lately, your hard work is greatly appreciated, by this reader. Merry Christmas
North
This is one of those tales that needs ten or more stars!
Outstanding job!
**********
A sweet and tender tale of romance and Christmas.
What a great miracle is the faith of children ... and how cruel they can be some men who are not able to love a family.
Fortunately, not all men we are so bad, some we still believe in the magic of Christmas, and more when it is approaching.
5 * for you.
I apologize for my English (yet), is not my native language.
Father Christmas is contemplating retirement
and considering an elf as his successor
does that mean he too is an elf?
or a very special man with the heart of a child?
and believe, again
thanks
I wish this author was still writing and submitting here.
This is a wonderful story. Well written and well thought out.
Some of us still halve the ability to see some of life from a child's perspective.
This makes this type story so beautiful. Children still want their parents to be happy and know that being alone is less than happiness.
Thank you for a wonderful story.
not someone who posts a comment without checking the last time the Author posted a story or was active on the site ..
Still , maybe if you address your thoughts to santa & send them to the North Pole , you might just get a response.
10 years since Ronde was last here ,
Godbless xxxhugsxxx
Who the fuck introduces their kid before the first date even begins?!!!! That literally makes no sense. Especially for young people. Like, it's stupid.
Now how about another story with Jim and Maggie that certainly was a bit of a teaser there at the end
Romance, Love, Santa, and true believers, what more could you ask for at Christmas.
just shows there is someone special out there for you and Christmas brings out the love in people...a touching little story...
Santa comes through again. l am becoming a romantic instead of being so cynical in my old age, Thank you for writing this nice story. lt would be good if all the children with just one parent could get the other parent this year.
... a very cheerful 5. What a wonderful telling of a predictable tale!
YOU HAVE DONE IT AGAIN. THIS IS JUST ABOUT AS GOOD AS IT CAN GET. THANK YOU.....................JIM
That was a Heart-Warming story. Like you said, sometimes adults let knowledge get in the way of Faith. That is where children are Smarter than Us. They Just BELIEVE!
Of course I could nit pick, but taken in the spirit it's written, I love it. Timmy will be looking for some Tooth Fairy action soon...
I loved this story! It was extremely sweet and very romantic! Great Job!!!
I hope you will resume blessing the rest of us with more of your poignant stories.
Short. Simple. Innocent. Compassionate and Heart Warming.
Man, you pierced my heart.
Keep writing
Well wishes

that was one of the best i've read it was really magical. excellent work
This is a writer who seems to have ceased posting before I even started reading on here, but almost all his stories are real winners!
Loved it! Thanks very much for a great story very well written
This is well writen story. I enjoyed it all.
I could have enjoyed it with out the sex in it. I will record your pen name and watch for more. Please keep the storys flowing.
Thank you
A nice short story, well written, likeable characters you just need a little extra insulin when you read it. It is a cute fun ride. The story does not take itself too seriously.
Proof that a story can have plot without taking six hours to read. Compact, heartfelt, and emotional. Very well done. Thank you.
Excellent story. It draws the reader in from the beginning without becoming sappy or saccharine. I wish you would post more, or if you are writing for publication let us know where to find your work.
Jerry
and a hope for dreams and wishes to come true - if only....
I just know that you have done a lot of living, & acute observation of life's journey. You great story teller, with uniquely original plots, & superb character development. Also many other commentors have requested new stories, I am now another one. All the best. Dan
Thank you for such a wonderful, wonderful inspirational story. Please keep writing and sharing such great stories
Amazing... and yes, I was in tears as well. This is the type of story that leaves you all happy and partly sad because it is over. It's almost midnight in Tokyo and I have to get up early, but I will read one more of your stories. You are absolutely talented and should have your stories printed.
It was brilliant... and although I had guessed what Timmy asked for it made me cry all the same! So poignant, so eloquent... thanks...
Every time I read this I end up in tears (of happiness), and really isn't that what a good romance story is supposed to inspire.
Ronde, any new writers in this genre should be MADE to read your stories to learn what romance is all about, we'd be reading a lot less crap that way.
I noticed that you haven't submitted any new work for a while now, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE come back a write some more, I'm sure there are many of us who really miss having any new stories from you.
I was crying by the end of the story. I felt it down to my toes. Looking forward to your offerings for the new year. Thank you.
Christmas tale. I myself am 5 1/2 months pregnant and as time goes by I worry that I'll find myself in Melissa's position but somehow my husband just keeps popping up acting like stan. It was such a touching story and I can't wait until the day that I can look from my kitchen to see my Husband and Daughter playing in the living room next to the tree.
Thanks for sharing this amazing story!
and I have a smile on face and mist in my eyes.
It is simply a great story with all the right elements.
Thank you for sharing your talents.
Michael
Ronde, here it is the middle of July and I'm sitting at my computer with "leaky" eyes. It happens everytime I read it. I should know that I'll tear up by now.
I agree that the story would stand alone without the sex scenes. Your stories and this one expecially are stories of human beings with real fears and dreams and cares and wishes. I look for something from you everytime I open the new story list at Literotica. I know that I will enjoy it for the story leading up to and after the erotic part (heck, I enjoy that part too).
Just don't ask me which of your stories is my favorite, I don't know. I think it is what ever one I am reading at the time or have just got done reading.
Thanks again.
(still waiting for the one you sent in earlier this month)
Ronde this is the only story I have ever read on this site that brought tears on my eyes. Someday I hope someone recognises your unique talent and puts you into print so the world can share in your beautiful gift. Thank you for this most heart warming story.
I turned my computer on at 9pm, it is now 2.11am. This is the 4th ronde story of the night (sorry other authors), commencing with Laura's Vineyard which was brilliant as this story was. There's no doubt that you have a talent that needs to be shared outside Literotica ..... and if you need a manager I would be more than happy to fill that role lol.
How do you do it, Ronde?
Every story I've read of yours is so GOOD... a perfect balance of storytelling, erotica and sentiment, without being soppy. This is just gorgeous. I defy any single or divorced mother of young children to read it without blubbing. Everything a single mom weeps for - the kind, caring man who will accept and love her kids as well as be a fervent lover to her - is in here.
I know I've got another box of tissues somewhere.... You should be publishing these stories in real life.
By the time I finished this story I could hardly read the text on the screen through the tears. An absolutely wonderful story.
My eyes is still watering. This is the best i?ve read here in 2 years. Thanks Ronde, and please keep it up.
Thank you for this beautiful story. It truely showed both sides of Christmas. The ending couldn't have been better. I was thinking that Stan had been the Santa but when it turned out to be the Jolly Elf himself. Well,.. that just made the story Purfect. Thank you again.
The story was moving and very sweetly written ,it makes u realise that some one is up there looking at us and helps make our dreams come true.
Just wanted to say thanks for the wonderful story. It was the most enjoyable of reading material, and I hope to enjoy more submissions in the future.
Russ
I enjoyed this story VERY much. It captures the spirit of Christmas which seems to be lost. This story serves as an example of good writing that, even without the sex scenes, would make a great christmas story.
Your writing style is excellent and you are indeed a talented author. I will look for more stroies from you in the future.
Gerry
Ronde, Ronde, Ronde - - - -
I read this story when it first appeared, and just now finished re-reading it.
It is quite nice that Literotica has equipped us readers with a means of allowing all to see your feedback and comments.
The comment posted about "editing" the story for family consumption is a benchmark for you to consider writing more for the public at large, as well as for Literotica. I will say that the racy parts bother me not, but, when whole families can enjoy your efforts, you are on your way to great things.
Thanks for the nice Christmas story. I wish you success in the years ahead, just keep the stories coming.
Regards,
Boswell
One of the best stories I have read in a long time...made tears flow even though I was smiling. Shows the pure love a young son has for his mother and that wishes and dreams can come true if you believe hard enough. The story is also so well written that it could stand on it's own even if the sexual parts were deleted. Great story from a great writer. Thanks for the wonderful read!
