Dear Santa

I just have to write to you and say my son wrote you a letter last night. Man, was it a task. He was so stressed about what to write and how it looked on the paper. He started writing and then got distracted by drawing a snake, or something. When we were done, I told him I would take it and mail it to you, he FREAKED out telling me you would not want a letter that looked like that - with all the scribble marks and stuff. I assured him you would love it, I even tried to have him email it to you. He told me you don't have a computer. He wrote all of it by himself and I was very proud of him. Please bring him the bike he asked for, so he will understand that it is OK if things aren't perfect. Do you think I have anything to do with his reaction? I hope not.
Thanks Santa - you are the best.
Van's mom
