Santa Claus made an appearance at Big G and the Kissinger Kids were eagerly anticipating their meeting witht he big guy. Zachary could hardly contain himself....he hollered "Santa" all the way to town. Nate was silent. I think that he was mentally cataloging his list. Ella had her schpeel all worked out.....an American Girl doll, Get a Clue books, and a New York fashion designer game.
We got to Big G and the big moment had finally arrived....Santa!! Zak froze...a deer in the headlights. Who was this huge man in red and what was that white stuff on his face? Where was the Santa he'd been expecting? You know the one with a black top hat, button eyes, a carrot nose and a corn cob pipe....our poor Zak thinks that Santa is a snowman.
Ellie, having all of her ducks in a row, marched right up to Santa, sat down, got the list laid out for him and got her candy cane. Love a lady that gets right to the point and gets the job done.
Nathan had business to do with the man in red and actually mustered up the nerve to sit on his lap. I think that it helped to have his big sis there to hold his hand and tell him that it would all be okay.
Now that Christmas morning has past, Ella told me..."Mom, that must have been the REAL Santa at Big G, because I got everything that I asked for." What a good listener that Santa is and a very lucky little girl Ellie is.
Apparently, Santa needs to go on a diet. I asked Ellie to get his plate of cookies ready and this was all she gave him. She's lucky the Big Guy thinks that she's cute....**Santa didn't know what a NY fashion designer game was and his American Girl doll wore Madame Alexander doll shoes, but the books were the real deal!!**
