Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

By John Piersol McCaskey

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,
Lean your ear this way,
Don’t you tell a single soul
What I’m going to say.
Christmas Eve is coming soon,
Now you dear old man,
Whisper what you’ll bring to me,
Tell me if you can.

When the clock is striking twelve,
When I’m fast asleep,
Down the chimney, broad and black,
With your pack you’ll creep.
All the stockings you will find,
Hanging in a row,
Mine will be the shortest one,
You’ll be sure to know.

Johnny wants a pair of skates,
Susie wants a sled,
Nelly wants a picturebook,
Yellow, blue and red,
Now I think I’ll leave to you
What to give the rest;
Choose for me, dear Santa Claus,
You will know the best.

Our 7th Annual Santa Mini Sessions were a huge success! The kids all loved having one on one time with Santa and all the fun pictures he takes with the kids. Santa is super easy to chat with and makes all our kids feel comfortable. Even the little ones managed a few smiles thru the cries.
