The next day (yesterday) we stopped at Grandy's office on the way to run some errands, and there was a man there who was a friend of Grandy's. He introduced us, and we were all standing around talking for a few minutes. Then somebody looked at James and realized that he was just STARING at the man, he would not take his eyes off of him. And he looked nervous. He was very unsure about this strange man. And then we realized - this man was an older gentleman, had a slightly larger belly, had white hair and a white beard! James thought this guy was Santa! Poor kid. :( I'm sure by next year he'll just love Santa!
We've been having fun getting ready for Christmas and doing a little shopping. Friday was Jonathan's day off and so we spent the day together doing some Christmas shopping. James went CRAZY at Walmart when he saw all the toys - he pointed at everything and said "da! da! da!!" What a cute kid. I am pretty sure that this is the last year we'll buy his presents for him while he's with us.
We're doing really well. Still searching for a better job. Jonathan is working so hard at his job and at job searching - he is such a great guy! James is walking all over the place and is having fun with his aunts and uncles who are home for Christmas (well, some are home, and more are coming in a few days)! We feel really good about things and know something good will come up soon!
