Almost

With this still in our memories from last years visit

we spent weeks prepping Abigail for another, more successful, visit this year. We even made a "practice" visit to Santa and just sat and watched the children sit on his lap.

This year, she agreed to just stand by him.

She even said "cheese".

And... need we say more?



Note: Lucy was a champ through the whole thing.
Abigail recovered quite nicely...the chocolate helped.

Magic

Magic Erasers really are magic. Really. The other day I accidentally left a sharpie marker out on the counter. I wasn't gone long...but by the time I returned, sharpie marker had made it onto my Pottery Barn plates. Abigail, oblivious to any wrong-doing, just told me "I writing my A's Mommy". (We have been practicing writing the letter "A" these days). I pulled out our magic eraser and Hooray--- they really are magic and my plates are as good as new.

p.s. Abigail and I did have a little chat about only writing on paper.
