Boy does my Son love Santa

Your boy got closer than my twin 3yr olds. They wouldn't go near the creepy old man. We ended up getting the photo with them in the stroller in front of Santa. They still were screaming in the photo (of course my wife still bought the awful photos!)

It was funny, the Santa guy asks me "how come kids watch monsters on TV and play with monster toys, yet are afraid of me". I responded something like: Monsters are colorful cartoons and your just a creepy old man wearing a red outfit. No offense intended, but take the suit and beard away and I'm glad my kids aren't interested in sitting on middle aged stranger's laps.

They cry because they've been told he's real, and they get there, and they see through the disguise - they know he's not real - so they cry, their lives shattered.

OK, I'm just yanking your chain.

What I thought was funny, was that it looks like santa's dentures are falling out.
