Santa Sees Everything

Today Noodle, Peanut, and I went to Boonville Walmart. As we were walking in the door, an elderly gentleman with snow white hair and a beard and plain clothes came walking in beside us.
He looked down at Noodle and told her what a pretty little girl she was and asked her if she was a good big sister. Noodle looked at me first as if to ask my permission to speak to this stranger. I told her it was ok and to tell him thank you for the nice compliment. The snow haired stranger pulled out his wallet and removed a business card and asked me "Mom, is it ok for me to give her this?" I looked over and saw that it was Santa's business card!!! SANTA!! and told him "Most certainly!" Noodle stood there in awe and Santa told her "Remember that Santa is always watching. I am taking a vacation from the North Pole right now." Noodle was dumbfounded as we walked through the produce section whispering to herself "I got the real Santa's picture" "He's really here" This kind hearted stranger tickled Noodle and even brought me excited smiles today. Thank you Santa! Now if Noodle will only remember bumping into this stranger as she takes a tone with me several times a day, including today!!
