We've been so busy that we were a bit late visiting Santa this year. I picked the kids up from school and we went straight away to see Santa. When we got there he was taking a break! The kids used the time to really think about what to put on their Wish Lists. Collin put two things that he'd never mentioned before and Delaney couldn't remember a single thing she had put on her wish list (we'd left them at home). One thing they both didn't forget was the Wii. They want that more than anything this Christmas.
In the end, they had created three lists: Collin's, Delaney's and Both. The "both" list had only one item - the Wii. Boy I hope Santa can pull that off because it's VERY popular this year.
Collin went first (Delaney was still finishing her list) and Santa made him giggle about asking for a life-size Barbie doll.
Then they both went to ask for the Wii.
Delaney went last. She chatted with Santa for quite a while and she promised to put out cookies and milk.
Later she informed me that he is the "real" Santa Claus because she tugged at his beard and it was real! Delaney is correct - he is the "real" Santa Claus. He remembers them each year and makes each child that sits on his lap feel special.
