All smiles, but this is as close as Joseph Rifenbark, 2, chose to get to the jolly old guy. Maybe next year he'll climb up on Santa's lap.
That's a real tear that even kindly Mrs. Claus couldn't stop from flowing. Five-month-old Maria Rifenbark will most likely get lots of toys under the tree from Santa, sure to bring a smile to that sweet little face.
