I have been lucky all three years with Santa. I have never had the experience of the screaming child on Santa's lap. I love the second picture of Aiden, that is a typical face he makes daily. He is plotting something as he is listening to Santa. After we left I asked Aiden if he liked Santa and he said 'Yes, but Santa not get my anything ever ever ever.' I told him if he was a good boy Santa would bring him something special and he responded back with 'All I got was this' pointing to the candy cane and hat the elf handed him as we left." Eric and I laughed so hard, we thought it was so cute that he was under the impression Santa would be giving him what he asked for while he sat on his lap. Maybe thats why he gives me a big smile while sitting on Santa's lap without bribary.
