An open letter to the fat guy in the red suit.

I asked the kids to let me write down their letter to Santa Claus. My best attempt at transcription follows:

12/23/08

Dear Santa Claus,

6 I want number 5.
Kiera wants 5 too.

Evan wants H.
Kiera wants H too.
U 1

Evan says “Merry Christmas”
Kiera says “Merry Christmas” too.
Daddy says “Merry Christmas” too.
Grandma says, “you might think”.
Greg, Merry Christmas.


We will leave you bones.
We will leave you candy.
All that time getting ready before the thunderstorm rain.
Let's go that way & write letters. An 'F'.
A 'P'.
Kiera wants a letter 'P' too. Yipee.
A 'B'.
Santa Claus is going to bring me a 'Q'.

Be Yourself. A 'G'. And get your wife's town a 'V'.
Give him a 'B'. Give him an 'N'. Type an 'O' and 'L'.
Yipee! Yipee!

Evan wants an 'H' and a 'T' and a 'Y-U'.
Evan wants a book.
Kiera wants a book too.

Merry Christmas!

Sincerely,

Evan and Kiera
