Santa Clause

Grace learned how to say HO HO HO back during the summer from one of her board books she has. In fact, it was one of the first things she would actually say. So as Christmas has gotten closer we have read more books about Santa and she has got more enthusiastic with her HO HO HOings. So I felt pretty good about taking her to see Santa. My sister is staying with me for a couple days while our husbands are golfing in St. George so we thought we'd brave the mall and visit Santa.
This is my sister Michelle and her baby Logan.

We waited patiently in line for our turn and Grace was a happy child until........Santa's Lap. There was no way she was going to sit on his lap! She screamed went stiff as a board and wrapped her legs around me so tight. But I had to have my picture so here she is.

Santa's a good sport for dealing with my screaming child.

OH, poor Grace! I've always thought that the mall Santa was creepy--I think I'd cry if you asked me to sit on his lap too-I'm on her side!

I think every Santa is a good sport to put up with screaming children. Poor Grace!
