Have a favorite photo of a little one with Santa? Time is running out to share it with us so we can give everyone a reason to smile this Christmas.

Please email your jpeg photos no later than Friday, Dec. 21. We’re looking for photos of children with Santa to: [email protected]. Be sure to include information that includes the child’s name, age, and any additional information about what makes the photo so special to you.

We will be posting several photos each day as they are received and will be organizing them all in a slideshow or gallery format to be featured for Christmas Day.
