santa ... we're not so sure


The boys accompanied my parents, J, Loni, and Klaudia to the fire department's Christmas party, where Santa put in an appearance and handed out gifts to each kid. They had a lot of fun during the dinner, but when it came time to approach the big man with their secret requests, it went about like last year: Liam wanted nothing to do with Santa, and Max sat on his lap for only a minute, kind of bewildered but cooperative. But boy, did Santa ever know what to get for these kids! Liam got a United States puzzle (every state was a piece) and has put it together about a hundred times since then. Max got a pattern-making kit, which he refers to as a puzzle -- both boys love playing with that. Excellent choices, Santa!
