Thursday morning on the way to drop the kids off to Aunt Pats, I had been listening to 97.1. Each Christmas season they do a part called "Scared Straight with Santa". Moms call in the studio and ask for "Santa" to call their child if they have been naughty and inform them that he will not bring the Christmas gifts. It is hilarious when you hear the reactions of these little children. I hadn't noticed that Braeden was listening intently until I looked in the rear view and saw how he was concentrating on the station. Santa had called a little 5 year old boy and was asking him if he was good. It followed with, "You stuck your tongue out at the prinicpal" and then the boy replying "No I didnt". I watched Braedens reaction.
This is how our conversation went:
Braeden: Mom, Santa called the boy
Me: Do you know why Santa called the boy?
Braeden: Why?
Me: Because he was a very bad boy. Santa only calls children who are being bad.
Braeden: I dont want Santa to call me.
Me: Well Braeden, do you want me to call him?
Braeden: No.
Me: Well I will if you are being bad.
I smirked. I now have a new weapon until the new year.
