Today we made our traditional trip to Richmond to see the Legendary Santa and what a fun day it was! I opted to take the kids to a special offering "Sunrise with Santa" which was so worth it!! We arrived at the Children's Museum at about 7:20 and I waited in line while the kids and my mom waited in the warm car. They came and hopped in line at 7:45 when the doors opened and we were the second family in line. My munchkins, and the other children, watched in awe from the moment we heard the sleigh bells ring, and saw Santa's boots slowly coming down the chimney. He climbed out of the chimney with a burst of energy and excitement and one has never seen such glee from a small group of children! Santa spoke to all of the children for a few minutes before getting down to business. My kids were so exited when Santa turned around in his chair and called them by name to sit in his lap. They energetically told him about their elf Simon to which Santa engaged in a conversation with them about Simon's role in our family. Gabe in particular shone with cheeriness as Santa asked about what they wanted for Christmas and so forth. He even commented to his elf to make sure she saw Abby's "oh-so cute" purse. The visit was entirely enchanting and magical.
Santa, I know you will be reading this at some point, and I just want to thank you for keeping the believers in our family. We were blessed to again share this day, and this tradition with you.
