Santa Claus is coming to town.......

Yes, Santa Clause came to our house!! At least my kids think so! Is it bad if a 10 year old still believes in Santa? I think Jacob still believes. Although, the last couple years he’s asked me if Santa is real. How do you answer that? I just look at him with a serious face and say “Do you think he’s real?” He still says yes when I ask that so I reply “Then that’s all that matters.” One of these days I’ll have to tell him the truth. I’m sure his buddies at school talk about whether he’s real or not. Oh well. MaKena on the other hand, she really doesn’t grasp the whole Santa thing yet. She did tell me a couple times that she didn’t want Santa to come to her house. I think the whole stranger in her house freaks her out. I don’t blame her.

Anyway, Santa came Christmas Eve and left the kids a present and some candy. Jacob was with his dad this year so he opened his Santa gift a few days later. He was happy with what Santa brought him. On Christmas day MaKena came in and woke me and Lane up. I sent her downstairs to see if Santa left anything for her. She came running up all excited as there was a present for her. I love seeing kids get so excited over presents. The best part was seeing her face when she opened her Belle doll and horse. She loves (and that’s an understatement) horses and princesses. I don’t think we could get it out of the package fast enough for her. She loved it! Nice work Santa!!

Cheese.....can we say excited!
