Santa Visits a Little Early

For the past five years, a group of us have gotten together with all of our kids (the number has grown over the years) and Santa comes to visit at one of our homes. I teach with a wonderful man who dresses as Santa and brings his little elf helper (his wife). The kids get so excited. Andrew usually gets very shy, but somehow Santa already knows what he wants. This year was the first year we had no tears and on the way home Abigail said to me, "Mom...Santa knew my name!" The picture of the "older kids" is all ladies I teach with.
