Santa Claus is Coming to Town

I was worried about this from the beginning.
 When I found out that Santa Claus was coming to Kate's preschool, I wondered how she would do.  Does this look tell you?  (I love how Taylor looks so excited and Kate is looking quite concerned!)

When Santa Claus walked in the room, Kate started scooting farther and farther away until she was almost completely on the other side of the room.  She was having none of it.  All the kids took a turn sitting on his lap.  When it was Kate's turn, she refused and then burst into tears.  She ran to me, wrapped her arms around my neck and wouldn't let go.  Poor thing!  It made it so much worse for her that everyone was looking at her.  Kate does not want attention, she hates having people watch her.
Guard was willing to sit on Santa's lap, only to pull his beard.  I love his expressions!  He isn't too sure of this Santa person either.

 

Kate recovered after Santa left and was back to her happy self.  I hope she isn't too scarred for life.  It's fine - Santa can be a bit scary when you only see him once a year.  Merry Christmas anyway!
