All I Want For Christmas...

All I want for Christmas is a few crafty kits...
I want lotsa toys! Hey and check out my belly button, Santa!
I'm serious here, all I want is a remote controlled train...


Conversation with Carter about Santa:

Carter: Mom, why does Santa have a strap on his beard?
Me: Well, Carter, he really isn't Santa, he's Santa's helper because Santa is sooo busy right now he doesn't have time to visit everywhere. So his helper is "helping" but yet needs to look like Santa.
Carter: Mom, where are Santa's boots? He's wearing tennis shoes.
Me: Well, Carter, maybe they were wet, and he's drying them out.
Carter: Or maybe they're over there! (pointing to a wonderful display in this library where Santa is stuck upside down in a chimney made of red books!)
Carter: Mom, can we stay and watch Santa leave? I wonder how he leaves.
Me: I don't think he brought the reindeer this time, Carter.
Carter: Not the reindeer mom, but the sleigh!
