Ho Ho

Emily is loving the idea of Santa (or Ho Ho) this year. She started working on the big guy back in October when we went to a local children's shoe store. They had a Santa statue, and as we were about to leave, Emily decided she wanted to sit in his lap. She smiled up at him and held his hand. After she hopped down, she saw some suckers she wanted near the cash register. She looked at me and said, "Pay, Mommy," trying to get me to pay for them for her. I told her I wasn't going to buy them but told her she could ask Santa to bring her some for Christmas. She marched over to Santa, held his hand, and asked "Suckers, please," as she gazed up at him ever so sweetly. And then, just in case that wasn't enough, she broke into the Barney song....."You love me too!" She was laying it on THICK!!! :0)


So, ever since, Emily has been telling us that Santa is going to bring her suckers for Christmas.....and candy. She also made sure to add that one on. What a sweet girl!! My heart just melts thinking about how sweet and precious she is to us!
