Santa Inspector....

Last night we stood in line for just about an hour to see Santa in our town's square....it is a nice little set up where the kids get their one on one time with him in his "house"....and for $5 get their picture made of course....


During our 12year old whining that he's hungry, 8 year old whining that she's freezing, my ankle throbbing lengthy little wait in line we asked Maggie and Aidan (the only two who still believe) if they thought he was the "real" Santa....they are smart kids and have figured out on their own, just by seeing so many in so many different places, that he obviously has "fill ins" from time to time....


They peered from the line into his little window and both agreed that yes, he did in fact look to be the real thing.....all was well.


Later once we had heard the man behind us telling the whole story of his four divorces, as we moved closer in the line (and had a better view) Adam was commenting on how he thought they were right ....he did in fact look to be the real Santa....


Adam:"Don't you think so Aidan?"


Aidan:(without even lifting his gaze off of Santa)....."No...he's got a watch on...."




"And whatever I do, may it always bring glory to you"
