Jolly Old Saint Nick.

We are coming up on a week before Santa makes his stop. Ruby wasn't so sure about him when she met him for the first time this year (we by-passed Santa's lap last year...what's the point if she is just going to be scared out of her mind?) No crying, screaming, or kicking was involved, instead, Ruby just stared at Santa in absolute silence. I don't even think she blinked. Classic.

Today Ruby and I wrapped some gifts. Me, thinking she is only two and wouldn't remember what we wrapped, let alone who they were for, didn't wait to wrap the gifts when Ruby wasn't around (nor did I refrain from telling her who the gifts were for). Major backfire. Tonight when Hugh got home she told him there was a movie waiting for him under the tree (she was hoping to watch it)...too bad that is the one and only gift I have for Hugh and it is now spoiled. Oh, well. Hugh got a good laugh, that should count for something. Happy wrapping everyone...barely a week before Christmas...we can't wait!

Hey Meg!! I'm so glad you said hello on the blog. Its sorta funny because I too look at your blog and have told Anj how much I love it and your writing. Cyber world is sorta strange that way. And, like they said above that Santa picture is classic! Merry Christmas!!

P.S. this is turning into the longest comment, but that tree you did for Hughie was amazing.
