Jana Kramer simply expertly dodged a bullet! Or, at the least, the tip of a really enjoyable period!
On Monday’s episode of her Whine Down podcast, the One Tree Hill alum revealed her eldest Jolie is rising up — and he or she’s not prepared for it! Particularly, the 8-year-old had some questions on a sure man who comes round annually to ship toys. You already know, Santa Claus!! Jana recalled:
“Jolie goes, ‘Mommy, I used to be speaking to this lady at lunch.’ … I used to be like, ‘OK, what did she say?’ She’s like, ‘She stated that Santa’s not actual.’ And she or he goes, ‘So, is it true, Mommy? Is Santa not actual?’ And I simply stared at her and I used to be like, ‘What do you imagine? What do you assume?’ As a result of in my thoughts, it’s not time for her [to] know that Santa’s not actual.”
OMG! We wager Jana was stressing!!

The Christmas in Mississippi star is of the mindset that her youngsters — together with 5-year-old Jace whom she additionally shares with ex-husband Mike Caussin and 9-month-old Roman whom she shares with husband Allan Russell — shouldn’t need to be taught the reality about Santa till they’re in “fifth grade or above” (so, round age 10). Due to that, she needed to assume rapidly to navigate this convo! She shared:
“I simply kinda turned the query round to her, and I simply stated, ‘What do you imagine?’ And she or he stated, ‘Yeah?’ And I stated, ‘Sure.’ And I used to be beginning to stumble over my phrases. I used to be like, ‘Sure, Santa is actual.’”
Jolie was then skeptical about magic, which her classmate additionally advised her doesn’t exist, however Jana had a quick response to that, too! She stated:
“I used to be like, ‘Child, the magic of Christmas is, like, essentially the most stunning time.’”
Fortunately, all of it labored! Jolie’s nonetheless a believer in Santa. However her momma did come clean with two mythological creatures being faux, as she dished:
“[Jolie said], ‘However, I imply, the Easter Bunny isn’t actual.’ And I used to be like, ‘one hundred pc, not actual.’ She’s like, ‘Mommy, a bunny leaping round?’ I used to be like, ‘1,000 %, that’s not actual.’ And she or he’s like, ‘And the Tooth Fairy isn’t actual both, is it?’ and I used to be like, ‘No, child.’ So, she obtained these two.”
Oh, man. Seems like a slippery slope to disclose the reality about some and never all! Hopefully, Jolie doesn’t get to considering too exhausting about any of this! Love that Jana’s making an attempt to maintain the magic alive for her youngsters so long as potential!!
Now that the 8-year-old understands the reality about some holidays, although, the mother-daughter duo are going to work collectively to “make it enjoyable for Jace and Roman.” Aw! That’ll be good for the little lady!
