The little girl grew shy when her mother took her to see Santa at the mall. She was eager to get a present from the bearded man but found the experience frightening, and she was embarrassed when the older boys who lived next door began to tease her about her shyness.

Nichole found a few more words to pluralize, so I will split the mark on this one.

But, Nichole, be sure not to use a comma when making a plural. You should have said "Santas" not "Santa's".
