The babe and Santa

Last weekend, we thought we would check out the post Thanksgiving holiday rush. The fact that we wanted to do that still reminds me that I am a visitor here, looking at life events as a tourist of sorts.

The mall was crowded when we reached at 4 pm. The deals were almost gone and the air was heavy with the collective exhalation of thousands. Near the tree in center court there was Santa of course, with a wailing baby on his knee and a desperate mom trying to coax a smile.

We did not stand in line. But as we watched from the fence, the babe shouted out of the blue ‘ I want a cash register.  I want a cash register’.

He is two and he gets Santa Claus!

Do you tell you kids about Santa?
