Little girl mistakes Walmart shopper for Santa

A trip to Walmart tued into a magical experience for one little girl when she saw 'Santa” walking among all the other shoppers.

The young lady, Sarah Jo Riley, runs up to a man in a red shirt and white beard, very much resembling St. Nick, and shyly approaches.

The video, shot by Sarah's father, shows the man, Robert Larck, get down on one knee and play along with the girl, asking if she's ready for Christmas. 

She happily tells him that she will be leaving out cookies for Santa and his reindeer.

The adorable video was shot on December 10th in Hurricane, West Virginia and has already been viewed over 127,000 times.

 

Sophie found Santa at Walmart this evening. She saw him then kept sneaking up on him. She asked him if he was Santa at first and if you tu up the volume you can hear the rest. So cute and innocent. I love this!!Posted by Robert Riley on Wednesday, December 9, 2015
