Santa's visit...

[Ericsmomma]

Evening all;

Tonight we had our annual "Santa" visit to our home.
We invite all the kids in the neighborhood, also cousins,
nephews, neices, etc. over for cookies and treats. Then
"Santa" knocks on the door and comes in and brings presents to all. The kids have a ball!! And this year..
ta-da...Eric actually sat on his lap and gave him a little pat....thats a huge accomplishment!! Last few years he just screamed...wouldn't go near him!! So hubby and I were thrilled! Got some really good video too. The man who plays Santa is really terrific. Makes each child feel special. It was a fun time for all. But I'm exhausted....off for some sleep. Dolly

Sounds like a WONDERFUL Party!!
So good to hear Eric is realising Santa is not such a bad fellow after all!!
I LOVE when the kids start to really awaken to the magic of Christmas...it is such a special time in thier growing up!

My girls HATED Santa and screamed at him until they were around 6 !!
Lewis worked out last year, at 3, that Santa was alright... he has a bog full of yummy sticky treats!!
This year he is totally into Santa... as behind as his speech is, and as few words as he has...
last week he came out with "Anta" as clear as anything...and everytimne he sees him..."Anta...Anta..

Merry Christmas to you and yours...
Tammy.

Hey, that's terrific!! Glad Eric did so well and that everyone had a good time....my kids saw Santa yesterday at the holiday party at Meghan's school....

Today Santa is coming on the Fire Truck! This will either be alot of fun or a big disaster, LOL! Our local volunteer firemen do this every year....DH used to be a member and it's always a fun thing - but I don't know how much MM is gonna like the loud truck!
