Who Needs Santa?

We headed out to the Americana to see Santa while Grandma was here. Abby was talking about it all morning. I knew once we got close to the man she sometimes calls "pop pop" that her white knuckles would be clutching on to me for all that was worth. She bravely marched up to Santa's house...


and once inside, was in awe of the Christmas decor. As we approached Santa, she hid her face in my chest and Santa said, "Go for it, Mom. It's only going to get worse." Right he was.



Classic.

After she pulled herself together, we spent the rest of the afternoon eating cheese and watching the water show that compares to the Bellagio in Vegas.



Oh, and her shirt was quite apropos for the day...(from Grandma N.) "Who needs Santa when you've got Grandma!"

I praise God for His blessing of children who bless my life and that Abby is just too precious... All the moments I had with Abby, Jilly and Grant fill my heart with so much joy... Thank You dear Lord..

Humbly and with much thankfulness... Grandma H
