Dear Santa, I have been a nice friend. In Kindergarten I picked up trash. I've been nice to my girl cousin. I helped my Mom with the Christmas decorations on the Christmas tree. I kept my room clean for two months. How do you get all around the world in one night and deliver all those presents? Tell Mrs. Claus I said, "Hi!" please. And the elves too. My birthday was supposed to be on Christmas Eve. My birthday really is not Christmas Eve because my Mom didn't want to be in the hospital on Christmas Eve. Every word that I wrote is true. I can read Junie B. books now! I love gymnastics and I have been practicing. I can do back walkovers now. I moved up to Level Advance One. Emily Logan Grade 1 Boyd Buchanon Mrs. Connelly
Dear Santa, I helped my Mom and Dad put up my Christmas decorations. I have been doing my best for the teacher this year. This year we are making a Christmas tree out of our hands and I have been doing my best on them. I have been practicing our Christmas play song. I have not argued with my parents this whole year. I let my sister and Daddy pull out the two teeth that were loose two weeks in a row. I have been helping B.J. on the playground if he falls or gets hurt and I help Mom clean my dishes. I have been a good boy this year. How are you doing this year? I hope you are doing good this year. How do you deliver all the presents in one night? How does Rudolph's nose really light up? How old are you? What color of nose do you have? Red, pink, or skin color? How do the reindeer know where to go next from house to house? Have you been good to the elves and Mrs. Claus? When you were in first grade what was your favorite subject? Mine is math. How will we get our presents when you die? Will your son be Santa Claus? What is your favorite holiday? Mine is Christmas. I think yours is too. How many elves are there at the North Pole? Who is on the naughty list and who is on the nice list? You are the third greatest person in the world. God and Jesus are the best! How many toys will I get this year? I've been reading my hardest. It is the fifth of December and how many toys have already been made so far? How old is Rudolph? How do you know that Rudolph's nose is going to stay lit up this year? I have been nice to my friends this year too. Merry Christmas, Charlie Charlie Clevenger Grade 1 Boyd Buchanon Mrs. Connelly
