Kids' Christmas Thank-you's
Dear Santa,
Thank you for the new red wagon with two seats. Did you mean I have to share with my little brudder?
Love, Doug
Dear Santa,
I guess you didn't get the Xmas letter I wrote. I asked for a fire truck but I got a garbage truck by mistake. Please put my name down for a fire truck next time.
Thanks.
Love, James
Dear Aunt Rose,
Thanks for the red sweatr you maid. My favorit color is really purble. Maybe you could make that next yr.
Love, Sally
Dear Grandma Ann,
Thank you for the Lalaloopsy doll. I'm saving in my piggy bank for an American Girl but I'll use yours til I have enough.
Love, Molly
Dear Grandma Joan,
Thanks for the pretty bracelet. We didn't do much after you went home except open our Xmas presents. It was more fun when you were here.
Love, Becky
P.S. - I hope you get the cast off your ankle soon. I put my toys away every day since you left.
Dear Papa Jack,
Thanks for the race car for Xmas. It goes fast on the kitchen floor, but Mom doesn't want me under her feets. Maybe you could send me a racetrack.
Love, Tim
Dear Aunt Beth and Uncle Will,
I finished the puzzle you sent me and it was easy. Mom and Dad took me to the mall to find a harder one. They didn't have any. I haven't done anything else but the food court was good.
Love, Jeffrey
