Breakfast with Santa

On Adam's birthday, we planned to wake up early to have breakfast with Santa.  Marley had other plans for sleeping in until almost 9 a.m. We did make it to school in time to make a gingerbread house, eat a little candy and a doughnut, and see Santa.  Marley walked up to the front of the line to meet Santa and Mrs. Claus, holding both of our hands and checking them out and acting very brave about the whole thing.  Then when it was her turn to talk to him, she turned and said, "Up!" and wouldn't even give him a second glance.  Mrs. Claus was very encouraging and gave her a candy cane that she loved later.  Mrs. Claus guessed she was 2 and said to try again when she was 3!
