Desert Boy and Santa
Yesterday was the Epiphany, the twelfth day of Christmas when the three wise men reached baby Jesus with their gifts. So the Christmas season is now officially over, despite the many Christmas decorations I still need to take down and put away. But I couldn't resist posting one more Christmas photo, this one taken by friends who witnessed Desert Boy's first encounter with Santa Claus. Do you think he got what he wanted for Christmas?
That is exactly what my Matthew did his first…and LAST time with Santa. It's a strange tradition we Americans have--terrorizing our children. Don’t feel bad, we all did it!
Desert Boy is still so darling even when crying...

I was always a little scared of Santa too. Somebody that knew if I'd been bad and knew if I was asleep. Scary!!

Oh, Caroline, you have not heard him in person. He would make operatic sopranos jealous.
