Our failed visit to see Santa
For days we have been pumping Claire up to go see Santa. Jeff and I have been telling her how happy Santa will be to see her and how she gets to sit on his lap to tell him what she would like to get for Christmas. Of course she said she was going to ask for Dora toys! Claire was all excited to wear her pretty dress to show Santa. We loaded up in the car and drove to Katy. We talked about it the entire drive there and when we got there, Claire was excited to see him and couldn't wait to find him in the store. Once we spotted Santa, Claire got to watch a few kids in front of her sit on Santa's lap. She was excited for her turn and Mommy was excited too, thinking this year Claire will finally sit on Santa's lap for a picture!
Here we go...as I carry her closer to Santa, the death grip gets tighter and tighter. She starts to say loudly "I don't want to, I don't want to". The strongest person in the world couldn't pull her off of me! I finally convinced her to let me stand by Santa with her for one quick picture. Why I continue to torture her every year for a picture with Santa, I don't know. Maybe next year...
