"*GASP* SANTA?! PRESENTS?!"

I wrapped some of Luke's Christmas presents the other day and put them under the tree.  When he woke up from his nap and walked into the living room to do his routine round of puzzles, he saw these wonderful gifts all wrapped up.  I hope I can write this in the most effective way so as to capture his total and complete surprise at what he saw.

     Luke:  *GASP* [mouth wide open in shock for more than 5 seconds]. Santa come? PRESENTS???!!!
     Mommy:  Those are from mommy & daddy, but Santa comes in 5 days.  Do you like those presents?
     Luke:  [clapping, laughing, & running hysterically] YAY! PRESENTS!!

So our sweet little boy gets it.  Who knew?

I wish, wish, wish I had a picture or video to capture that moment.  I was caught off guard.
