[blparent] question

[Veronica Smith]

Sounds about right.  And as far as next year, it just depends on how much
time you spend with her.  Gab was with me all the time, so when it came time
to sitting on santa, it was okay if mommy was holding her hand.  I hear that
kids that go to daycare of sitters, they are much better at letting go. V

hi everyone.  I just had a question for anyone that knows.  
I took my 17 month old daughter to see Santa at the mall last week.  Last
year, she was very small, but she went right to him, and ssat on his lap.
This year, however, she was fine watching other kids with Santa, but when I
tried to have her sit on his lap, she started screaming and grabbed on to my
shirt.  I know about stranger anxiety, and for the most part, Mackenzie's
pretty quick to warm up to most, but she didn't want to have anything to do
with him.  I was wondering if this was a typical age for her to be scared,
and will she be better next year? Thanks for any help.  
    Nikki
