Babies crying on Santa's lap photos are the best, and I've always wanted one for my own personal collection. Is that cruel? Maybe. But it's such a holiday treasure, isn't it? A right of passage in a way? Sure. Go with it. Unfortunately, despite being terrified, I've never managed to capture Cole's fear on camera. I considered pinching him mid-photo, but I didn't want one of the nosy elves to call Children's Aid...
So to make up for my lack of hilarious photos, I've asked my friends to submit their best Santa freak out photos. And believe me, there are some real gems here! You might want to empty your bladder before you take a peek at these.
No, Really. Go Empty Your Bladder Or This Might Happen
MERRY CHRISTMAS! ENJOY!
