After waiting in line for 45 minutes with my 3 girls to see Santa at Colasantis, I saw a sign that read cash only for Santa photos. (I was panicked as I never carry cash.) We were 3rd in line at this point and I was by myself so I was unable to run to an ATM. The very festively dressed lady in front of me overheard my grumbling and said oh, don't worry, I have cash and proceeded to pay for my girls' photo. I had tears in my eyes for her kind gesture.
I hadn't realized that adjacent to the Santa area there was an ATM. I hurried to withdraw the money so I could pay her back but somehow she and her family disappeared into the crowd. We searched for her but to no avail. I then took it as an opportunity to teach my girls about paying it forward. We bought some extra tokens and gave them to a family.
So, to the lady in the knit Santa dress Thank you and Merry Christmas!
