I Want a Scooter for Christmas October 6, 2009

Posted by Emily in : Kansas, Parenthood, Princess Hannah , trackback

Instead of packing, I’m spending time with my kids enjoying the beautiful fall weather.  Today we went to Deanna Rose Farmstead and the volunteer at the entry gate looked a whole lot like Santa Clause in overalls and a cowboy hat.

Hannah is a believer, and she knew that man must be Santa dressed as a cowboy.  So, she asked him, “Are you Santa?

You know what?  The man smiled, opened his wallet, and gave her a picture of himself dressed as Santa.  (Santa obviously hangs out in Kansas City during the off season.)

She looked at him, looked at the picture, and then looked at me.   (This earned me the mother-of-the-year award in her mind, putting her face to face with the man that just hands out gifts.) She then very confidently told him, “I want a scooter for Christmas.”

He told her he’d put it on his list.

You know what I’m shopping for on Black Friday this year.

What a darling little girl. I just love it. I am thinking of you often with your move….I feel for you. And I am glad you will be back with family during your transition between places. It will make it so much more bearable. You have an incredible knack for life and for being such an achiever. And I love your cute kids!
