Tonight Alexandria and Zachary saw Santa again. It's the third time Alex has talked to Santa this year and I was wondering if she'd start to question why Santa seems to have a very bad memory about what her name is and what she wants for Christmas. She hasn't seemed to worry about that yet!
Tonight we were at the KW Little Theatre Christmas party (it's the company that's putting up Jean-Paul's musical this July). One of the gentlemen had brought his Santa suit, which he donned for the kids. (Our two and one 3 1/2 week old baby girl).
Alexandria talked to Santa for a bit and was all smiles. The best part was when she was talking to him about how on TV she watched about how he grew up and how he used to not have his beard and stuff. And how he used to have red hair. Sooooo cute! She was referring to "Santa Claus is Coming to Town". It's the 1970 special done in the same kind of animation as 1964's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. I LOVE that she thinks she was talking to the same guy that was in the special we were watching. :)
Have I mentioned having kids is pretty cool?

I love having children too, if only to be reminded how it feels to see the world through rose-coloured glasses, full of magic and wonder!
My 5yo decided she didn't want to see Santa for the first time ever, because she said "it would be weird" (read: scary). I won't push :)

I need to constantly remind myself to live in the moment with them, though!
We were able to coax my 2 1/2 yr old to sit with Santa. You should see the look on his face in the picture :)
