Santa at School!

You aren't going to believe this, but today Santa made a surprise visit to Andrew's school!!! Andrew is terrified of all characters or anything in a costume, but he actually got up and sat in his lap. He would not make eye contact, or smile, or talk, and he looked like he was about to wet his pants the whole time, but he did it. Way to go, Andrew! Santa brought all the kids presents to open. Then, Andrew passed out gifts to all his friends and they had ice cream together. What a fun day!!!!
Here is Andrew passing out his gifts. The kids were soooo excited. When I was getting the gifts out, I look up and see about 5 kids hugging him and saying "thanks, Andrew!" This was before they even knew what they were getting!
Santa counted to 3 and all the kids tore into their presents. Except for Drew-- who just sat there like a lump on a log. He is so funny at school, no expression, no talking, all business. So, Ms. Stephanie helped him open his gifts.
"I will not make eye contact"
"I will not make eye contact"
I will not make eye contact"
Doesn't Andrew look like he is about to cry? Santa asked him what he wanted and of course Andrew didn't say a word. All the other kids started yelling "he loves choo-choos, bring him some choo-choos!"

That is too funny! Santa came to Charlie's "school" on Monday and Charlie evidently didn't like him much either. His teachers told me he freaked out and his eyes were still tear-stained when I came to pick him up! Oh, momma's heart!!
