We had some time to waste before meeting up with Jonas the other day, so the girls and I were wandering through the mall. We have only just introduced the idea of Santa to Lilah, and she has run with it. When I saw his big set-up in the middle of the mall with no line, I thought she'd get a kick out of meeting him. I wheeled the stroller up and pointed to him - "Look who it is, Lilah!" I wish I'd had my camera for the look on her face. I told her that she could go talk to him if she wanted, to tell him what she wants for Christmas. It took her a second to build up the courage, but after she climbed out of the stroller, she ran across the carpet and lept into his arms. It was really cute. She was really excited to see him, but just kept saying 'Dora backpack, Dora backpack' the whole time. (I would have taken her hat and coat off if I had thought about it in advance, oh well).
