When Santa asks the girl what she wants for Christmas, she answers nothing; she already has everything. Just in case someone didn't understand.

As for that scene from Miracle on 34th Street where the little Dutch girl can't speak English, but ol' Santa can speak Dutch, it still brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it! --Fred in AZAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-20101551261633815182015-10-24T16:18:41.888-07:002015-10-24T16:18:41.888-07:00I bought 34th last Christmas as it is a favorite o...I bought 34th last Christmas as it is a favorite of mine as well. My favorite actress, Oliva De Havilland shared on Facebook that Mrs. O Hara passed on. I felt a wave of sadness.
