We don't usually write St. Nicholas a note, nor sit on his lap. But, this year they couldn't resist the urge to write, and I wasn't about to stop them. Friday, we marched their notes down to the post office and put them in Santa's big red box. Thankfully, they don't charge postage for letters to Santa and they don't make you wait in their line! But, I'm wondering: Does a note to Santa go to the North Pole or Turkey?
Dear Santa,
I would like these three things:
1. more hex bug batteries - lots of them.
2. more helicopter blades.
3. a refrigerator box.
Your Friend,
Brother
Shh. Don't tell. He's getting two of the three, and the other one will arrive in time for Epiphany!
Sister's note was more typical for a ten year old girl: She wants an ipod and a pony. Here's to wishing!
Once an angel, always an angel :-) |
The star of Jesus
above the manger
was made of tinsel.
Jesus liked to help
and love as well
as the dove.

An ox
looked upon
the helpless
babe, lying
in a
manger.
A star
above,
shone light on
the Savior
who was
God's choice.

Talking to the birds, quietly being fed by his feet. |
Ah, He gave us a voice, and we too, get a choice.
