Wait. I haven't been a faithful reader but love this series. Are Justin and Tasha Captain and Super Soccer-Mom's real names? Did Santa steal Cap's powers?

Yes; in full they're Justin and Tasha Case. As for Santa, it's more like borrow. Temporarily. :) He gave them back on the day after; at least is what I envision he did.

Gooootcha. So you referred to them by their normal name because they didn't have powers, I assume. Sorry for needing to break it down between the lines. I can be a bit dense.

This was such a fun story.

Hey, no worries; I should write about the time I mixed up a skirt and a dress when trying to assist my wife with getting our kiddo dressed a few years back. *Apparently* the two outfits are different and not interchangeable. :D

This was so wholesome, but I was/am so worried about what Santa is doing with his CHM's powers -_-

This year, "Santa Claus is Coming to Town " has a little extra zing to it.

*Gonna find out who's naughty or nice* ...

"..at least that year..." Yeah, they're busy at that time. Just ask Superman about the time he had to rescue Santa from the Nazis...

(There is a slight typo. You mentioned "the day after Christmas", which means he would have been shopping on what we Canadians call Boxing Day and not Christmas Eve. And trust me, that's dangerous, since it's our version of Black Friday...).

Good catch; thanks! That should be fixed now.
