I give to you in its entirety, Child #4's letter to Santa. It's currently on our fridge door, but her plan is to leave it next to a plate of homemade shortbread cookies this evening. It's a nice, feel-good letter.
Dear Santa Claus,
Welcome to my house! I bet you are very busy tonight. How are the elves and the reindeer doing?
I have been a good girl lately. I've gotten terrific grades and am on Honor Roll. I also help my mom cook. Today I helped her cook an omelet. I have built some good friendships. Mikaela, Kendra and Jacklyn are having a cookie and present exchange.
For Christmas I would like a Caboodles box, a penguin pillow pet, and a penguin or cupcake shirt. I would be so happy if you got me these things.
Merry Christmas!
Love, Child #4
Please write back.
Awww....such innocence. I probably won't be online much more today. Perhaps a little on Facebook, but that's it. So, from our home to yours....Merry Christmas!
"Please write back." Big smiles here. That's terrific!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Barrie!
cutest letter ever!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteMy middle guy wrote a very sweet note to one of Santa's elves. I adore how they believe.
Very cute letter! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
ReplyDeleteshe must get her cute from you. And yes, I did get jammies.
ReplyDeleteI helped answer Santa letters at the post office - and this letter is very well written - it's obviously done by the daughter of a 'famous' (you so are) author. If I were Santa I'd be quite impressed.
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays!
That letter is pure sweetness in so many ways ... I especially love that she asks how the elves and reindeer are doing (concern for others ... such a wonderful thing). Hope her wishes came true!
ReplyDeleteKelly: She definitely got all three items (and more) on her list. The items came to under $50. ;)
ReplyDeleteGabe: You get to answer letters to Santa!! How fun is that?!
ReplyDeleteEileen: All her good traits comes from me. Natch. And I did NOT get jammies this year!
ReplyDeleteTeresa: I hope your holidays are going well!!!
ReplyDeleteGreen Girl: I love this age!
ReplyDeleteSarcastic: Thank you. I can't help but agree. :)
ReplyDeleteDavid: She really is a very sweet kid. I did write back, btw. ;)
