Jaime at Oliver’s Madhouse creates a Linky each week for us all to share our Magic Moments. These moments can be any moment that feels magical to you, however big or small.
As I was ill at the beginning of last week, I have got a little behind with Baby’s advent calendar and I also had to swap a few things round. So yesterday, while Mr Hubby was doing the weekly shop, Baby and I popped into town to see Santa at the Christmas market.
She waited very patiently with the other children and then it was our turn. I didn’t know how she would react, as people warned Mr Hubby that kids often cry the first time they meet Santa. Santa was located in a lovely log cabin, but silly mummy didn’t see the massive step up into the cabin and I caught my foot and we went sailing across towards Santa. I don’t know how we both didn’t hit the deck or end up in Santa’s lap, but we didn’t, however I think it is safe to say we made an entrance!
Baby confidently sat on Santa’s lap, while I snapped away on my phone trying to get a shot. Then she did start to cry, but I think more due to the fact that she had missed her nap, than being scared of Santa. I was very proud of my little girl and although she wont remember, I will know that we took the time to give her these experiences and we will always have the photo’s. It was such a Magic Moment, watching our little girl with Santa.

Oh, bless her! Lovely photo, and she did do well not to cry. My daughter’s always been fine, but my son was not going anywhere near Santa at the weekend when we visited him!
That looks like a wonderful Christmas market and didn’t baby do well with Santa, so many never get to the knee before the lip wobbles!
She was very clever 🙂 x
