Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town |San Antonio Photographer|

I saw a little magic today.  I saw the magic though my daughter’s eyes.  I wish I could promise that she always have a little magic, but for this year….it is there in a great big way.

Today has been on her calendar for days.  OMG…I have so much to learn from my little elf…she is so organized and seems to preplan everything.  Shoes, dress, tights, hairbow, even bobbie-pins were laid out last night for the special trip to see Santa today.  She even practiced her Santa conversation in the car on the way:

“Hello, Santa.. I know you know my name is Alyssa, but I just wanted to remind you and I have been a really good girl this year.  You can even ask my mom.  I know my elf “Ordament” has been visiting you when I go to sleep and is telling you all about my day and what I especially want for Christmas this year.  I would really like to have a DJ Hero and an Indian doll, but not one that looks like a barbie, instead I want one that looks like a real baby”.  But, Santa, I know what ever you get me, I will love it.”

Sure enough she talked on and on with the Jolly ole St. Nick.  I am not sure he got in to many words.  But must have said a few things because she even commented on how his breath smelled like “Hot Cocoa“.  Ahhh…the things kids notice.

Santa, thank you for giving my little elf some magic that works on all of us.  We will see you in 5 days Santa…and if you want you can wear your Santa shorts and flip flops, cause it is warm here in San Antonio.

Alyssa said she was Nervous to see Santa as we approached his green chair…
