Holiday Cheer

I got a letter from Santa today via USPS. It's on Christmas reindeer letterhead, and boy! did it make my day. I can't scan it right now, so I thought I'd re-type it:

December 2007

From the Desk of Santa Claus

(my address)


Dear Kimberly,

Hello from the North Pole! It's pretty chilly up here these days, so I'm looking forward to visiting your house in Chino Hills this year. But first, I've got a lot of work to do. All of us are pretty busy here at Santa's Workshop. There are toys to make, presents to wrap, and nine hungry reindeer to feed. And of course I've got my list to check.

Which reminds me, Chung made sure your name was near the top of my list of all the world's good boys and girls. I even know about the [Ray-Ban] Sunglasses and MacBook that you want. Mrs. Claus sure likes a surprise, so she won't let me tell you whether you're going to get it or not. You'll just have to wait and see!

Getting gifts is always fun, but I think giving gifts is more fun. To me, there's nothing more enjoyable than giving gifts to all good children of the world. Delivering gifts to kids like you always make me happy, probably as happy as you are when you're Exercising, Reading, and Volunteering.

I hope you make the people around you happy this holiday season. Be good to Mom, Dad, John, Kirby, Roxy, and Pepper and have a safe and fun holiday vacation.

Your friend,

Santa Claus

Chung Ta asked me to send you this letter.
