"Bike, please, Santa!"


Grace really, really, really wants a bike from Santa.

She has taken to yelling at Santa's across the mall ("Bike, please, Santa!"), shaking/yelling at my Santa Christmas ornaments ("Bike, please, Santa!"), and even demolished a gift bag that had Santa's picture on it, in the process of hugging it and pleading ("Bike, please, Santa!").

Today, she got her very first Barbie. The RS President brought her one. Grace goes to most of my meetings with me, and is just so darn good that she deserved a little gift.

It is last year's holiday Barbie, and Grace is over-the-moon in love with her.

However, because holiday Barbie is sporting a Santa-inspired dress, Grace hasn't really played with her. Instead of brushing her hair or taking off her shoes, she has carried her everywhere, and has shouted at and shook her all day:

"Bike, please, Santa Barbie!"

She just wants to make sure she's got all her bases covered.
