When Gavin was 3 years old we were at a store and Santa was there. I asked him if he wanted to tell Santa what he wanted for Christmas. He refused, and as we started to walk away he burst into tears. He was so worried that Santa wouldn't know what he wanted, but he couldn't ask him. He begged me to ask Santa for him. So that year I ended up asking Santa for a Buzz Lightyear spaceship while my little boy watched from afar.
Brynn has been my only child that is not afraid of Santa. She has always sat on Santa's lap. For the last few years Brynn and I have made a trip to the mall to see Santa, while the boys have stayed home and written letters instead.
This year Santa came to our Ward party. Brynn marched right up there. Alec refused, and Gavin was way too cool for that.
After seeing the bag of candy Brynn got from Santa, Alec decided to talk to him if I held his hand. Then Gavin finally gave in for the bag of candy too (notice he is the very last kid to see Santa, he refused until the last minute).
Brynn asked for a Littlest Pet Shop DS game
Gavin asked for a Battlefront DS game
Alec asked for a DS
Luckily they all asked for things previously asked for. No surprises.

That sounds familiar. Your kids and my kids must be related.
So cute! What child can resist candy...
