Pictures with Santa

My kids have had their picture taken with Santa every year since they were babies. I can still remember the first picture of my oldest, Cindy, laying on Santa's lap when she was just three months old. I can also remember the year all three kids were screaming and crying because they were afraid of Santa. Now my kids are all grown up and scattered across the country. But one thing has not changed, they each take the time to go have their picture taken with Santa and send it to their Mom with their Christmas card. My son is single and in college so it takes a lot of nerve for him to go sit on Santa's lap. My middle child, takes her dogs to the local pet store to see Santa and gets in the photo herself and my oldest has the two kids and her husband in the photo with her as well. They are some of my most cherished pictures and certainly a favorite Christmas tradition.
