I wish I could tell you that they happily sat and played and posed for me, but that would be far from the truth. The amount of angst that 3 minutes in front of the camera generates is really quite astounding. We're talking Oscar-caliber performances all around. And then I had to tell them that there would be no lollypops for dessert and that Santa would take back all their presents and that baby Jesus would be sad. OK, I actually didn't say any of those things. I try not to bribe or threaten or cajole, especially over silly things like pictures. But believe me I thought it all in my head. And a few other choice things, too.
Seriously, it has been a wonderful Christmas (with more left to celebrate) and these three to wake up to Christmas morning along with my amazing husband and our whole extended family is truly all I could ever want.
