Meeting Santa

Since Santa did not come to our ward party, I had to figure out another option to have my girls see Santa this year. So, yesterday I took them to Pocatello to see the Santa at the mall. Elena was so excited and talked his ear off for a good 3 minutes. But then, he gave her a little coloring book. She came back to me somewhat disgusted and said, "Mom, he didn't give me a cane! and where is Mrs. Clause?" I told her Mrs. Clause was probably baking cookies and Santa must have run out of candy canes. I thought it was hilarious that she felt ripped because all she got was a dumb ol' coloring book when she wanted some candy!
