Owen vs. Santa Claus!

A very quick post today, but I thought it was worth the time. Standing in line at the mall with Brecken and Owen this afternoon, while kids in front of us climbed on the railing and the makeshift snowbanks and kids behind us had their diapers changed, I realized that we are now "one of them." We've joined a new rank of adulthood - that group of people that stand in line to see the magical Santa Claus at the mega-mall. Granted, at least it wasn't the local Copy World (how embarassing). The little girl in front of us wanted nothing to do with the bearded man, but Owen took everything in stride, snoozing his way through the first Q&A session with jolly old Saint Nick.
I tried to run through my wishlist with Santa, but Brecken pulled me away before I could ask for an Xbox 360 or a good looking Swedish nanny. Next year.

BTW: Questions with Owen will return next week.
