We were not going to see Santa this year. Ben can’t be in public yet. But . . . Santa came through the neighborhood riding the firetruck with the sirens blaring. We all had to go now.
So we loaded everyone up and headed to the gazebo where Santa was. Chris stayed in the car with Ben while the girls and I waited in line. When it was time, Chris and Ben joined us to talk to Santa.
Madie wrote her list down for Santa. There were 18 items on the list. The elf told Madie that of course Santa would get it all for her. The elf and I need to talk. I think that Madie will be mostly satisfied. Hopefully. Ainsley asked for a Barbie truck and barbies (there is a crisis story there about Santa’s helper looking until 2am at 7 different store for the item without luck. Don’t worry the story ends well.). Ben wants a double action star wars light saber. Luckily I think all of the children will be happy.
I wish that Ben didn’t have to wear a mask to talk to Santa, but Santa saw a lot of people and we were already breaking the rules big time by taking Ben to see Santa. So give us a spanking and send us to bed without dinner because it was worth it and I’d do it again.
