That ' s adorable . I hope it doesn ' t bite him in the ass . Kids can get kind of cruel around that age . I was at Hersheypark 2 nights ago with my 8 year old . We get in line to see Santa and there is this older lady wearing a Santa style sweater in line in front of us . She gets to Santa , whispers something to the photographer , they take pictures no kids . finish up and we get our turn . I am chatting with her and she whispers to me so my 8 year old doesn ' t overhear that she is Santa ' s wife . I look at my 8 year old and I whisper to her so other kids won ' t overhear , ' Hey , know who this is ? This is Mrs . Claus ! '. This woman deserves a medal . My daughter told her all about how she had gotten a cookie recipe from her in the mail last year . They chatted for a few minutes . It was completely awesome . On one hand , I know my 8 year old will put it all together soon enough . But on the other hand , I have a 2 year old waiting in the wings . I feel for those parents that are morally opposed to Santa . This whole Santa thing can be a ton of fun .
