Sweaty Santa

“Christmas Eve, 1995; Michoacán, México and it was 40 °C (104 °F). My mom really wanted to get a cute photo of me sitting on Santa’s lap, but I wasn’t having it. So we both posed with this poor sweaty Santa and she actually made the thing into a calendar.”

“My son and I went to Paris for the weekend. He wanted to run and chase the pigeons but I wanted him to take a photo and he started having a tantrum and hit me in the face with his head.”
