Santa Visit

After waving to Santa at the mall on several different occasions, Pearl decided that today was the day she would sit on his lap. So, I talked up Santa Claus all morning. We even rehearsed a script.
Santa: "What is your name?"
Pearl: "Pearl"
Santa: "How old are you?"
Pearl: "two"
Santa: "What do you want for Christmas?"
Pearl: "A crib for my baby"

The result...

Although she didn't say one word to Santa and began crying the moment I sat her on his lap, she was very proud of herself for seeing Santa and was happy to have the book he gave her. :)
