A Visit With Saint Nick

We went to Valley Creek Mall in Woodbury yesterday so Emma could visit with Santa Claus. However, when we got in line to see him, she started clinging to her mommy. Mel asked Emma if she wanted to see Santa, but she did not want to. I did manage to get a picture of Emma with Santa Claus, but her mommy had to hold her, and she seemed a little frightened of him. Once we left the area, Emma kept saying "Bye bye Santa." She kept saying that, even as we left the mall for the car. Maybe she will want to sit on his lap next year.

Aw, there's nothing unusual about that! My oldest will finally sit with Santa and tell him what she wants for Christmas (she's 8), but my two younger girls (almost 5 and 1 1/2) will not. I did get Sammi, my almost 5 year old, to sit next to Santa, but she wouldn't look at him or talk to him. Santa can be very scary when you're small!

Thanks. Ahead of time, we weren't sure how she would do. She smiled for Santa last year, but she was only 9 months old probably had no clue what was going on.
