Little Boy With Missing Skull Who Has Been Defying Odds Gets Adorable Kiss From Santa

As a parent, taking your child to meet Santa every year for a photo is part of the parenting fun, right? In the case of Jaxon Buell, a sweet little boy born without most of his skull, his parents likely didn't know if a photo with Santa was ever going to be possible. However, the now 15-month-old boy — who wasn't expected to live long past his birth — recently celebrated his first birthday and continues to make strides, including getting to meet Santa Claus for the first time.

On her personal Facebook, Jaxon's mom, Brittany, shared photos of her son meeting Santa at The Mall at Millenia in Orlando, FL. Brittany and her husband, Brandon, also post tons of video, photo, and text updates on Jaxon's Facebook page, Jaxon Strong, and in addition to the Santa photos, they shared that Jaxon was receiving lots of gifts from all over the world, making his second Christmas a truly special one.
