Finally...A SUCCESSFUL Santa Visit

Joe and I took Leah to visit Santa today. For the FIRST time in 5 years, she actually sat with Santa by herself. It didn't have to be the usual family with Santa, or the refusal to go near him, or the crying "I don't want to" while sitting on Santa's lap photo. Nope, this year she sat next to Santa and let Santa put his arm around her. She still did not want to sit on his lap, but she was very happy to sit next to him. She even shared with Santa what her wish list was--Handy Manny Repair Shop, Puppy in a purse, and a scooter. She is growing up!
