Every year, children meet with Santa Claus to tell them their wishes for the holiday season.
Adults and older kids know that these people are mere mortals, but that doesnt stop the Christmas magic.
Carrie Noel witnessed this firsthand when her daughter Haidyn visited with a mall Santa.
She wrote that after Haidyn was done meeting with the Santa, she asked her what happened.
Shortly after, Haidynn broke down and told her mom about her wish.
Unfortunately, that wish is simply outside of his realm of magic.
He talked to her about her friend and about their relationship and about how much Brooklynn is missed.
What impressed Noel was the compassionate attention given to her daughter.
He didnt need to do that.
She knows her parents play the role of the gift-giving Santa.
Yet he decided it was worth his time to speak to her heart.
When she created the Facebook post, Noel didnt know the real name of the man who played Santa.
But thanks to the power of the internet, Santa has been found.
She updated the post to include a shoutout to him.
