Santa's Lap

I walk by a line of nerds waiting for the store's only Wii. Twenty seven people in line for one Wii. Somehow the math doesn't make sense. Luckily, I am not after one.
My two year old finally sat on Santa's lap this year. A scary enough proposition, since he smelled vaguely of Wild Turkey, or Aqua velva. She would get no more specific than 'presents'. Well, this non-drinking at the moment Santa was happy to here that.We buy her an art easel and an entire collection of paints, markers, crayons, etc. to decorate her artwork with. I have visions of repainting the walls every six months now.
Woohoo, got Xmas shopping done early!!! Until three days ago, she said she wanted a .......... pony. Oh my higher power!! We can't get a real pony and she understood that. So, we set off to find her a toy pony. Only one requirement....no lead painted toys from China.
On second thought, I think I will join the nerds in the Wii line..... I have a better chance of coming home with one.
