Dear Santa,

            I’m thankful for my mom’s and dads to protect me and keep me safe. I’m also thankful for my Brother and sisters although their annoying sometimes. Another thing I’m thankful for is the houses I live in to keep worm and the food I eat to keep alive. I’m thankful for school to learn the stuff I don’t know. I’m thankful for friends. Being thankful is a good thing.

            This year I wish for a gift certificate for build a bare work shop. I also wish for a new puppy. My whole family wishes that my grandma and mom wouldn’t hurt any more. I wish my parents never got divorced!!!  It’s kind of hard to wish that Brandi and Falsity want to stay because I sometimes wish that we never meet her!!!! I would like to get more Nancy Drew books. Sometimes we don’t get what we want and that is ok.

Love,
