Christmas 2014

River was scared of Santa for a long time. We must have spend about 4 hours at the mall that day discussing, watching other children, crying over, and debating sitting on Santa's lap. After all that, and being the great guy he is, she took a wonderful photo with him. She had created a Thank You card for him because he had given her a stuffed reindeer when she saw him last year, plus for all of the things he left for her under the tree. Talking to him about the card helped a lot. She asked for one thing all season long and so she knew exactly what to tell Santa when he asked what she wanted. A Merida Horse (from the movie Brave.)

If you look at her bangs, you'll notice that they are super uneven. That's because she (twice) took scissors to them right before that...anyway, at least it's a time and age marker. Lol.

Me around 4 or 5
