Here Comes Santa

What's Christmas without having at least one child crying on Santa's lap. Actually Gracie loved Santa until she saw me backing away to take the picture and thought her Mom was leaving her.
We had to talk Wyatt into going and see Santa. Wyatt said to me "Mom you go and tell him what I want this year, OK." We had to tell him it doesn't work that way. So when we got up to Santa right away Wyatt starts OK I want this year, its kind of hard to explain but its a power Miner cage from Lego.
Santa said "so do you want to sit on my lap?"
Wyatt "ooh no, no, no."
Santa "OK do you want a candy cane?"
Wyatt "hum is it peppermint I don't like peppermint."
Santa was lost for words.
With Dean we all practiced before on what to say to Santa, but when it was his turn not really sitting on Santa's lap, he clamed up. Wyatt came to the rescue. It really didn't go like the other millions of kids that sit on Santa's lap every year. Somehow they got all of their wishes told to Santa and hopefully they will be good kids where they will get what they want.
