The Real Santa Claus

When I got this picture from my cousin, I kept thinking of the words to the song, "Christmas Was Meant for Children."



This Santa looks like the real deal, the one we used to see in storybooks as children.  And this little girl, abandoned by her mother at birth, has found a happy home with my cousin Missy and her mom, Beth.

Her grandmother--my cousin Beth--makes her the most beautiful clothes and hair bows--and Lola's nickname is Sassy.  We're all hoping (and crossing our fingers) that she will be officially adopted by the 17th and that she'll be all set to have a string of merry Christmases in the only home she's ever known.
