Life is fabulous!

Well, I have to post this information that may mean very little to the reader but here it goes... yesterday I took my son to the Shops at Willowbend in Plano, TX to see Santa...this is my son's 3rd Christmas at 2 1/2 years old and our 2nd trip to see Santa.  Let me just say WOW!  He did awesome!...he walked right up to Santa, smiled, and just backed into his lap and giggled...Santa was super great and tickled him, etc. but what a great Santa experience this year!!  And of course last night is when it really hit me why us, as parents, do this kind of crazy thing every year (you know, drive miles to wait in line to pay crazy $$ for a picture!)....my little boy found his Santa picture on the counter and carried it around not wanting to let go, saying "Santa, Santa!"  Dad had to play a trick to get it out of his hand and switch him over to his Thomas train and Lightning McQueen car so he wouldn't tear my $40 Santa picture, haha!  What a great time!

 ...however, I must admit, the best part yet of this holiday season and parenting thing at Christmas time is when my son now sees Baby Jesus and says..."Thank you Baby Jesus!"  That is priceless!  Merry Christmas!  Take time to hug your baby and enjoy this time...soon it will be gone!
