Confessions of a first time Santa.
Saturday, Ann and I attended the Nakamura party,
after an afternoon concert at the La Mirada Playhouse.
It was totally unexpected when Susan Nakamura asked
me if I would be Santa? I asked if guys wouldn't be better?
She said she had no takers? I thought for a minute and said okay.
In thirty minutes I was upstairs adding a Santa suit over my own.
It was a deluxe costume with a beautiful beard, hair & hat.
It was fun high-fiving kids in the restaurant as I returned to the party room. I was being looked at as a different person.
And, a popular one at that. Fun.
The older kids were more eager, they knew a gift was coming.
The little ones were curious, or leery. Who was this guy?
Wasn't Santa a tall guy? One 3 years old refused to come to Santa.
The adults kindly welcomed Santa. See more pics here.
I've thought about it several times today & smiled each time.
Just because ...
A smile for Monday ...
