Context is needed here. Is the photo from a refugee camp? The sheer seriousness in these children's faces does not suggest that Santa came for a visit.

My first job out of High School was at St Paul and over the next 5 years Iearned so very much. Seeing the hospital torn down tears a small piece of my heart out. The Daughters of Charity and the doctors and staff of St Paul Hospital will always be with me…… Just Visit Now……www.todaysfox.com
