Santa

We don't really do the Santa thing. We tell our kids he is dressed up just like Mickey Mouse does at Disney World. (Don't worry, they won't ruin it for your kids.) Nevertheless, when we saw Santa at the mall yesterday the kids got really excited. Grant ran right up to him and jumped into his lap. When Santa asked what he wanted, Grant, in a very serious tone said, "a jackhammer." Santa didn't know what to do with that answer so he just gave a "ho ho ho." Kate was scared of the idea of sitting on Santa's lap so she just watched from a distance. But, on our way out of the mall she saw Santa was gone and got very sad that she didn't get to say bye to him. So, when we got home she wrote Santa a letter and told him that she wanted a bus for Christmas. What happened to trucks and Barbies?
