Overheard this weekend…
Kevin: Isaac, did you see Santa on Saturday?
Isaac: Yes! I saw Santa!!!! he was on a firetruck with lots of lights.
Kevin: Did you tell him what you want for Christmas?
Isaac: No, I didn’t talk to him. He was waaaaaaaaaay up there. And loud.
Kevin: When you see him next time are you going to sit on his lap and tell him what you want for Christmas?
Isaac: I want a scooter.
Kevin: I know, but are you going to tell Santa that?
Isaac: (exasperated) Daddy, I am not going to sit on his lap. I will walk up to him and tell him I want a scooter but that is it. That is it Daddy.
Good to know that my three year old has established “boundaries” that would make a therapist proud…

My son has given Santa a hi-five, sat on his lap, taken a picture with (in the mall) and let him know that he wants 2 blue flash lights. Of course this was all done in the encouraging environment of his daddy and with his cousin.
