My Friend, Santa!

Okay, so there are no pictures (yet) to go with this post, but I had to share something Liam said yesterday that was too precious and funny. We were in the mall and they have the "Pictures with Santa" set up, so as we were leaving we walked by to see Santa. There was no one in line so Santa was standing back by his "helpers" with his jacket off, checking messages on his cell phone, or maybe he was texting, who knows... the elves, maybe, Mrs. Claus...Santa has to keep up with the times after all, right? Anyway, so he waved to the boys and said hi and the boys both waved back and Liam said "Hi, Santa", etc. So as we got in the car and were leaving the parking lot, Liam said he wanted to go say hi to Santa again, and I kept explaining to him that Santa would be there for lots of days and we would come see him again. No satisfied with this answer he said very emphatically, "Mom! I need to go say Super Hi to my friend, Santa!" So there it is...Liam has a much stronger relationship with Santa than I knew about, and when Hi is not enough, give a "Super Hi"! Happy Holidays, all!
