Dexter, Missouri - Ole Saint Nicholas has been making his rounds throughout the community and recently stopped by Missouri Southern Healthcare to have his picture made with a few very special young people. 

Santa was welcomed by more than 70 excited children anxious to share their last minute Christmas wishes for the upcoming holiday.  

Missouri Southern Healthcare provided free photos of the kids with Santa and a coloring book with crayons.  The staff members and volunteers of the hospital filled the room with smiles and Christmas joy as they offered cookies and punch to those waiting to get their picture printed to take home with them.

The event was a happy occasion for everyone as the Missouri Southern Healthcare staff shared a little of their holiday cheer with others.
