Been working on a new PB about Santa Claus. I saw him driving a small red truck with a sleigh in the back. One of the writer’s in my critique group said it sounded like a PB. So I’m feeling blessed to get a chance to try it.

Lily’s Lagniappe: Had a tough exam today but really liked the NP I saw. She was kind and very gentle.

Santa visited Brooks at Nana’s house. He is so crazy about all the things Santa brought him. It was a good Christmas. We took pictures again this year at Lisa’s. They all came out really good.

Lily’s Lagniappe: Brooks enjoying his Santa haul today. He is going back to Charlottesville in the morning. We will miss him but hopefully he will move to Hickory sometime soon.

Getting  ready to get Brooks Christmas gifts and keep him busy at Nana’s house. He is such a good boy. He is so polite and loves his family.

Lily’s Lagniappe: Brooks is crazy about soccer. He’s going to a soccer camp on the 27th, 28th, and 29th of December. His dad paid for it. Shocker!!! I hope Brooks has a good time no matter what.
