Dear Santa,

We hope the toys everyone donated for this year’s R-H Kids for Kids Toy Drive helps you get gifts to all the children in Preble County whose families needed a little help this Christmas. We had a really good turn out in the weeks leading up to the big day, with nearly 700 total toys and gifts dropped off between Nov. 25 and the end of the day on Friday, Dec. 2. I am sure there’s something special for everyone this year! All our thanks go out to those generous donors who helped prior to the open house at Fort St. Clair on Saturday, Dec. 3, including all the friends and family of Brian and Missy Jones who proved once again how extraordinarily caring and thoughtful they all are. We don’t have the names of all our donors, but Santa, we know you know who was extra-nice! Thanks also to the City of Eaton, the Whispering Christmas Committee for helping you out, and if you see Dean Wigger, tell him he’s a blessing to the program! And please, make sure those ever-prepared Boy Scouts and their families get some extra gifts for being so nice and helping out again this year. The staff at the Greenbriar helped provide awesome treats for the children who visited the Kids for Kids event, and we thank them for providing the special goody bags. All the leftover bags went to the Preble County Christmas for Kids Program to use as stocking stuffers, and we know they were appreciated! Please enjoy the special letters inside this publication which come directly from students in several area classrooms, and from children who dropped them off to you at the toy drive. Some of the children and families who donated this year are also pictured inside with you. Thank you to everyone who gives of his or her own time to make the Preble County Christmas for Kids collaborative effort a success, helping those less fortunate this season give their children a merry Christmas. This county is full of angels and elves and hearts full of generosity, and we’re proud to be Preble County’s hometown newspaper!

Merry Christmas, The Register-Herald staff

Something that I would get my dogs is a new bed so my little old dog would shut up. I have been good by helping my mom and dad feeding my steer. And washing and watering and cleaning my steers pin. Another way I would held my mom and dad is helping them cook. I help my mom cooking potatoes for Thanksgiving and Christmas. A way that I help my dad cook is making steak. Love, Riley Littrell

The one thing I want for Christmas is a Bible. The thing that I would give my friend is a necklace. Since your elves do a lot lately like train reindeer and make toys, I would like to give them stuff to make toys with. I am giving the reindeer an obstacle course. Whenever the reindeer are done it gives them water and it tells them to stop or go again. Something that I need to improve on is reading bigger books. I am very good at school. For Christmas I also want a Boo the Dog. Merry Christmas, Laina Elliott

Dear Santa Claus,

By: Braedon Shaner I think I have been good this year I have been helping elderly like walking them across the street and when they don’t have money to buy a ice cream let’s say I help them and I pay for it. Then I do the chores and I sweep and do the dishes and clean I help my grandma a lot.I think I deserve a punching bag because when I get made I can punch it a lot and I want to be a boxer when I grow up. Second thing, is a train set because me and my family have a family tradition and are train set is getting old and that’s what I want for christmas this year. But I have someone special in my life and I want to give her something like a ring for christmas this year if I don’t get it I understand but what I really want is me not to be lasy so much so take the tv away from me. I think I am asking too much from you realy but if I am not I want my life to change what I mean is all of the bad things to change. But first I will tell you what I did wrong I talk when I am not supposed and that’s my biggest problem. So that’s what I want for christmas. But I want a big hunk of cheese to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love, Braedon Shaner

Dear Santa Claus,

This year I was helpful by helping my mom clean and organize her office and her shelves in her office. Also I helped my dad and stepmom ” Brittany” with the other kids at my dad’s house. What I want for Christmas this year is a bike because my mother bike is at my friends house. I also want a Wii because my other one broke. Also I would like some paint and paint supplies because I love to paint. What I wish for this Christmas is, that I hope my mom and dad get good paying jobs. I also hope I make new friends. My last wish is that I hope me and mom won’t lose our house because our landlord past away. Presents I would get for my family is, games like Twister or Trivia Pursuit for my stepbrother and stepsister Tanner and Laura, I would get my brothers Jaden and Gaige video games, I would get my dad a coffee mug that says “World’s Best Dad”, and I would get my mom a coffee mug that says #1 Mom. If I could see Santa’s reindeer I would award them because they fly around all night long and if I could award I award them with oats and carrots. Next school year “2017” I hope to learn all my multiplication facts from 0-12, I know almost all of them but a couple! I want to improv at home by helping by more and being more generous. Sincerely, Lylianah Matisyn Collier

Dear Santa Claus,

What I want for Christmas is pencils,art set,twistables,markers, chalk,smelly markers,books and a white broad.

Another thing that I have done good was I stayed out of people’s business. I’ve been good to my pets and I have been making things fair. What I would give to my sister is a horse calendar of 2017, bracelets, pencils and horse statues, so she can paint and some paint to go with it. The Christmas wish I want is for my parents to make the garage into a Gymnastics place and for me to have piano lessons. What I give to santa, the reindeer and the elves is a thank you letter to Santa what I would give the reindeer is carrots so they can get energy to pull the sleigh.

Dear Santa,

I want a ps4 for Christmas and a new basketball too. I have been pretty good this year and I’m finally starting to get my grades up. When people need help, I try to help them, but sometimes they say NO! But I try my best to help people when I can. Sometimes I get mad like when I play basketball. When I get mad I go as hard as I can. Sometimes when I get mad I do really well. I’ve been playing attention in class. I’m finally starting to get how math works. Imagine how much better I do when I pay attention. That’s my Christmas list and why I should get stuff for Chritmas. Love, Landon Ozbun

Dear Santa,

I do not want gifts just to myself, but to others as well. One thing I would like this year is a drawing kit. One other things I would like this year is a Lego set. Those things would make me happy, but I am sure other people would like to ‘be happy as well, so I am offering to give them what they would like. I think I should get these gifts because I am loving and caring for other people. Sometimes I put others first but myself sometimes I can be cranky, but that happens sometimes.

[ Preferably fiction, but I don’t care ] Second, I would like a pet dolphin [including an aquarium] because I would have a cool swimming buddy. Third, I would like a fluffy bean bag chair [ I need somewhere to read my books.] because it would be an easy-traveling chair. Lastly, I would like an iphone. The only reason I want an iphone is because I feel responsible when I hold a phone. I should get these gifts because I get good grades, work hard in school, and I’m nice to my friends. I behave well. [ Most of the time ] I am responsible, honest, and friendly. [Oh, by the way, I want some fashionable clothes also. ] Plus, I will give you extra cookies. Love, Adylan Pauline Pa nighetti P.S.

A laptop so I can still communicate with you out of town. A miniature dirt bike because I want to drive along the sidewalk. Last but not least, I want a bunch of the pencils that Trevor has. I deserve these things because I love to play video games, I like the book The Million Dollar Shot. I’m a great artist, I can’t open my drawers most of the time, and I want to write to my teachers. I want to write to my teachers out of town, I love to read, I want to charge my laptop, I love dirt bikes, I really like those pencils and my old ones got demolished. I’ve worked and been good all year. That is what I want and why I should get it. Love, Sean Vickers

I really want an elf on the shelf that brings me desert every morning in bed. I think I should get a trip to Los Angeles because I have been really good and I need a break from my sisters. I also think I need a Iphone seven because I can use it to block out what my sisters are saying. I also think i need a unicorn because I can make my sister’s jealous. I really want an elf on the shelf that brings me desert in bed because I don’t like getting up in the morning and getting breakfast and of course I need my morning sugar. Sincerely, Gabbi Lewis

I hope that your holiday season is going well.this is a letter that I’m writing. Here’s a couple thing’s I for christmas. My first item I’d is an ipod because I need something to do on like a roadtrip, or when I’m out at someone elses’ house and to interact with friends that don’t have ps4. The second thing is a playstation vr and some games with it, because they look cool and it makes you feel like you’re there. Those are two main things I want. I want books because I don’t have any at my house, and I don’t have much to read. So some big note and Captain Underpants would be nice. Some reasons that I deserve these is because I haven’t been as mean to my sisters as least year and I’ve been better at school. I don’t have any chores when I’m told to, I do it without being told to I just do it. These are reasons why I deserve the things I asked for Christmas. Sincerely, Brayton Gray

LETTERS TO SANTA

The Register-Herald Dear Santa,

My name is Bailey Wright. I am 11 years old. I am in the fifth grade at Bruce Elementary in Eaton, Ohio. I have been good all year long. Here are some examples: I am helpful to my family, I work well with others and I am kind. These are some of the things I would like to receive: a phone, hoverboard, art supplies, and to win the Preble County Spelling Bee. There are a few of the things I would like. My Christmas wish for others is that they could find cures for cancer and other diseases. I also wish that the homeless could find homes and I wish for world peace.

Dear Santa,

My name is Chase. I am 10 years old. I am in the fifth grade at Bruce Elementary in Eaton, Ohio. I have been very good this year. Here are some examples; caring for everyone, helping my parents, and having fun. Here are some things I would like to receive: a hovercraft drone, an IPhone, all stuff, I am grateful no matter what. My Christmas wish is my brother to be alive and so I’m not so lonely all the time, but I have friends come over sometimes.

Dear Santa,

How are the raindeer doing up in the North Pole? Are your Elves still watching for you or have they gone wiled? Is the slay still working? Is Mrs. Claus still at the North Pole? That I want for Christmas is a C3 NBA Full Court Basketball lego set. I also want a Stephen Curry Locker Rom lego set, and a Ohio State Mini basketball hoop. I also want a hoverboard for Christmas too. Your friend and not on the naughty list, Jordan D.

Dear Santa and Mrs. Claus,

Mrs. Claus, have you had a great summer hope so. Because it should start snowing soon. Are you working hard you are a good helper I herd. Are you going on the sled this year you should to keep the deer come just in case. If you come i’ll put more cooks out for you and santa. the deer can have some too. Santa have you had a good summer because christmas is come soon. Are the reindeer ready for the cold. I will make sure that you have cookies browns and milk. I want a 10-22 short-longshot, some long johns, tall muck boots, 12 gage shotgun, kayaking lot more. Sincerely, Brock

Dear Santa,

Hi Santa, how are you, how is Mrs. Claus? Hopefully the Elf’s get all of the presents done? What I would want for Christmas is a skateboard, neon street rollers, shopkins, chocolate glasses, new swimsuit, pen candy, shoes, sun and apple watch. I love cookies can you ask Mrs. Claus to make some? How is Rudolph? Is he leading the sleigh on Christmas? He really has a bright nose. You said Rudolph with your nose so bright won’t you guide my sleigh tonight. Merry Christmas. Love, Kurstyn

Dear Santa,

Is Mrs. Claus doing fine? How are the elves doing? Dasher is my favorite. Comit is my second favorite. You are awesome! The gifts I want are a skateboard, Pie Face Showdown, a new Ipod and a Hoverboard. That is what I want for Christmas. Love, Michah

Dear Santa,

How are you and Mrs. Claus doing in the North Pole? Do you ever go outside besides to deliver presents? And if so is it very cold and are your friends with a narwhale they are cool! I think is is cool how you can go around the world in one night to deliver presents. What I want for christmas is a basketball bag, ball, and pump, a pair of headphones and a phone holder. If I got this for christmas that would be amazing. Thank you for getting me what I wanted for christmas all the other years and for filling my stocking. Also in my stocking I want a pair of earbuds. Sincerely, Caleb

Dear Santa Claus,

I believe the best Christmas present for me would be a rip stick. First, when we get our new driveway paved, I will have more room to ride it. Also, if I get a rip stick I would probably be riding on it all day haveing a lot of fun all day long. Lastly, I could learn how to do a lot of tricks and get better and better riding it and

maybe even get some of my exersize. In conclusion, these are the reasons I believe the best Christmas preseent for me is a rip stick. Have a very merry Christmas. Love, Leah Schmidt (P.S. I hope I’ve been an Angel all year.)

Dear Santa,

I really want a Hatchamal for Christmas. One reason is I’ve been wanting one since they came out. Next reason is because they hatch by themselves and they are so cute! Finnaly, I can take care of it.

Tolliver Dear Santa,

I have been amazing this year. Like you have no idea how excellent i’ve been. If there an MVP for being nice I would win. I do my chores. I’m always good. I will sometimes be bad, but only because of my sisters. They always start it then I end up getting in trouble for no reason at all! The reasons I’ve been jolly this year are because I do a lot of helpful things. Here are some of the chores I do: I take Bo out, he’s our dog, I take out the trash, I vacuum a bunch, and I help my mom out and dad out a lot. I must ask you these burning questions. Who’s your favorite reindeer? What do you think about the people that don’t believe in you? Why are you so fat? Can you lay off the cookies because I want some too? Shouldn’t you be fatter because of eating all those cookies? Some of things I want for Christmas are Yeezys, A dune buggy, a cool bed, a playstation VR.I also want lebron 12 gamer , curry one mvp, Xbox one s,jordan 8 chrome,customized kyrie 2 that I customized the other day, a puppy friend for my dog Bo, and tickets to a Cavalier’s game, tickets to a UD vs UCLA game, Jordan 8 champagne, and iphone 7. Until next time… bye Santa​​!!! Sincerely, Dominick Gramaglia

The Register-Herald Dear Santa Claus,

Hi, my name is Ramy Ahmed. In this letter I’m trying to persuade on how acceptable I’ve been this year long. Look, I’ve been excellent my whole life since day 1. This year I might want some things that are going to take your elfs a long time to make,but you know what? I think I deserve it and I’ll give you a couple reasons why. I’ve been having the best behavior in my family. I mean look, my sister is at the bottom of the naughty list. She refuses to do what my mom tells her to do. I’ve been good in a lot of different ways. Plus, you don’t know how hard it is to be good when you have 2 annoying siblings. I’ve been good at school to. I help my friends with work if they need my help. If someone drops something like crayons or colored pencils I help pick them up because I’m a good citizen. If things aren’t going well for people I always say positive things never negative. These are some of the things I do at home to be good. I help feed our animals, I watch my baby brother, and I do a lot of farm work. I’m nice to my friends to. If there’s a fight between my friends I try to break it up. Here’s something you should definitely remember. Remember that time when my sister was sick and I took good care of her. I help my mom take out the trash to. This is something I really need you to know. I’VE BEEN REALLY GOOD THIS YEAR. There are some questions I really need to know about you. Who’s your favorite reindeer? How do you get in houses that don’t have chimneys? Do you like Oreo’s or chocolate chip cookies better? How do you drink milk with a big mustache and beard? How many elves do you have? How old are your reindeers? Here are some things I want for Christmas. I want two 3D puzzles. An African Lion one and A Tiger Shark one. I want Lego City Lego’s. I want a set that has more than a 1,000 pieces. I really want an IPhone 7 because I don’t have a phone. I only have an IPad. I want a hoverboard because all the people that have them say they are really fun. I want a new basketball because the one I have is starting to rip up. That’s all I really need this year. If I need anything else I will get it next year. Well, this is my last paragraph to persuade you or tell you that I’VE BEEN HONORABLE ALL YEAR LONG. The summary is that I help my friends if they need it, I always say positive things, I watch my baby brother when my mom is cooking, I help my mom feed the animals and do work around our house. I help take out the trash every week. I take good care of my siblings. Hopefully you get to my house safely and get me the presents I wanted. I hope you make this the happiest and best Christmas of my life. Last, but not least I wish you a Merry Christmas. Sincerely, Ramy Ahmed

Dear Santa,

Hello I am Mac Dare (as you know). In these next paragraphs I will tell you why I am superior. Of course, I am probably the nicest kid you have ever met . On the nice list it says angel under my name, right? So of course, I will be on the good list for the rest of my life. Next, I will tell you how I have been ship-shape all year. Here are the worthy things I have done at school. I always get my work done. I helped Malikii get his stuff because he broke his arm. Here are some great things I have done at home. I feed the dogs, I watch my little cousins, I took care of Chip (my steer), and this is how I have helped my family. I go with my Dad to help. I sometimes help my mom clean. I also help Grandma grade her papers from school. This is how I help my friends. I invite them over a lot. I also hang out with them a lot. I even help out with homework. You should remember all of this. I helped my dad with his truck. I played with the kids at the cookout.This is my plan for being good next year. I will help everyone. I will also get everything done the first time and that is how I will be excellent. Here are some questions for you. Do you have a family? How much do you weigh? Who is you favorite reindeer? Who is your favorite child? Also what cookies do you like? Those are my questions and I hope you can answer them. Here are all the things I would like for Christmas. 1. Nerf guns 2. Legos 3. Money 4 .Gift cards 5. Ripstik Did I mention that I wanted a Ripstik? That is what I want for Christmas. (I deserve it too). You know I deserve these things. Please give me the things I asked for. I have been good all year I deserve them. I really deserve everything I asked for. I am kind and very funny. I will continue to be kind and funny next year. I am the nicest kid ever, and you know I am better than a lot of kids (the bad list). That is why I deserve it all. I hope you bring it, Merry Christmas. From, Mac Dare

Dear Santa,

My name is Karmen! You probably already know me, but I thought that you would have a hard time figuring out that it was “this” Karmen. I have been great almost all year. I’ve had all A+’s all year, ran errands for Mrs.Tolliver, helped clean the classroom, cleaned my bedroom, babysat, cooked dinner and breakfast, and scooped out cat litter. I have a few questions for you. Where are elves born? Why do you have the same wrapping paper as my mom? Do you know my mom? Now I am going to tell you 7 presents I really want for Christmas. 1. Hoverboard 2. Cotton Candy Maker 3. Fuzzy Blanket 4. Jeans 5. ITunes Card 6. Money 7. Chocolate I think I deserve these gifts because I have been nice to my friends, and I will make my bed all year.

Dear Santa,

I’m sure you, of all people know me, but I’ll tell you my name anyways, it’s Allyson- Ally for short. I hope I’m on the nice list because I’ve been a perfect little angel! I’ve got straight A’s ALL YEAR! I’ve done my homework ALL YEAR LONG! That is hard to do with a huge family! I had to take a babysitting class, so I could babysit my siblings, but you know I did a SUPER GREAT job! On Thanksgiving when I went to Grandma Stammen’s I held Lana and James the whole time. When we go to Mimi’s house, for her to watch us, I ALWAYS help her! We all have to do dishes in our house and I ALWAYS get my dishes done, ALWAYS! I help my dad by getting the chickens fed. My friends are so nice and so when they need something I will give it to them, like when Sophie needed a hair tie I gave her one. Sometimes in math or writing when someone needs help I will help them figure it out. Does anyone know how nice and loving I’ve been to Leah, Nate, Mary, and Ryan?! I help them with their homework for crying out loud! Santa, I think you should just know that when Aunt Lindsey has the twins, and summer rolls around I will be helping Mimi and Aunt Lindsey with all the kids. I think it will be so much FUN! I’ve got some really good questions here for you that I have been just dying to ask you! So here they are. 1. What are your favorite kinds of cookies? 2. What is your favorite food? 3. Do you have a lot of Elves, if so who is your favorite? 4. What is your favorite Christmas movie? I hope my questions are not to challenging. I just have one more. How many people are in your family? Now this year I don’t have a huge list, but I do want canvases and my very own camera! It would be a really good thing if you got me some canvases because then I could make things for people and with the camera I could take pictures for people also. Both of those things are very nice! I would like the games Twister and Apples to Apples J.R. because then our family could have more Family Game Nights more often which would be really fun. I hope you get to have a very merry holiday that is so special that you remember it forever. Have the merriest Christmas ever and a very, very happy New Year. Merry Christmas, Ally Schmidt.

I help make breakfast in the morning. I help my grandma carry out clothes to her car because she has cancer and she is not that strong. I brush my teeth almost every night, but some nights I go to sleep and then I forget so I just wake up and brush my teeth in the middle of the night. I do my chores. I help sweep the house and I clean up my toys when I’m done. Then I use clorox wipes to clean the counter. I help my mom do dishes too. My mom says that I will be on the good list. Here are some questions. What’s your favorite reindeer? What’s your favorite cookie? Do you have a magic bag? Do you have Thanksgiving? Did you go to school? Here are the items that I want: Dumbledore’s Army Wand set,All the Fantastic Beasts Wand collection, Dumbledore’s wand. P.js p.s.4 virtual reality. And that is all.

I hope that this persuades you to put me on the nice list. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!! Sincerely, Landen Beachler

Dear Santa,

I know you know me because I’m on the nice list about every year, but still I’m going to introduce myself. My name is Kalob, I’m not on the nice list every year, but this year I know I am! You know that’s hard to be excellent because I have 6 siblings with two older brothers, but I try my best. Here are some marvelous things I have done at school. I listen to my teachers, I do my homework and turn it in when it’s due. I don’t talk back to them, I just listen. I pay attention instead of messing around. I try not to hurt others physically or inside. I try not to be a bully and when I see someone just walking alone I try to play with them or ask if they want to play. How I’m good at home? I listen to my parents, I don’t talk back to them because I know I’ll get in trouble. I keep my room clean because I don’t want to drive my dad crazy anymore than I already do and I know I will get yelled at. I do my chores because that’s just what I do and I do them to help out. I get money for doing my chores and if I don’t I have to wait till next week because it just adds up from last week and this week. Here are some questions I have for you: how come you weigh so much? Does it ever get boring giving presents every year? How do you get all these presents-do you have unlimited money? How many elves do you have? How do you get elves? Here are the things I want Lap top Trampoline Money Xbox one s New shoes More clothes Hover bored Well that’s my letter. Just remember that I have 6 siblings and 2 older brothers so, I deserve my presents. Thank you. Sincerely, Kalob

My name is Jordynn. I’ve been really good this year. I’ve been on the nice list for a while now. You know i’m your favorite kid in the whole wide world . Right? Even I know the answer to that! I’m a perfect little angel. So you should remember me when you are making the lists. I have been very wonderful this year. I don’t always get along with my sisters and brothers, but that does not mean that I am not good. I’m just like everyone else. I like getting presents. We all make mistakes. I am in Mrs. Tolliver’s class,and I’m a big help. My locker and desk are as neat as can be. I always turn my homework in on time. I write as neat as I can. I help my fellow classmates when they need help with something. I have been pretty superb at home too. I put the dishes away sometimes. I help cook dinner or get plates ready. Only when I have too. I do chores all of the time, even though I’m worked to death. I watch Edison and Bostynn when my parents are busy. I also organize cabinets and they can get really messy sometimes. I’m always nice to my friends and they are also nice to me. I get along with them even when they make me mad. I’ve eaten lunch with them every day. I usually play with them at recess to. Just remember this, I fixed my sister’s hair for homecoming. Even though she’s mean to me all of the time. I still love her. One other thing you need to know is that I’m sweet and caring to people. I have some questions for you. I just have to ask them. Do you get fatter every year? What if you don’t like the cookies that kids sat out for you, do you eat them anyways? Why does the Elf on the Shelf have to leave on Christmas Eve? I want them to stay longer. How do you fit thru the chimney if you are so fat? These are the questions I’ve been dying to ask for a while now. So I have this list. Do you want to know what is on that list? Well, I will tell you. I want a hoverboard. I would like a keyboard to play piano. I would like pajamas. Maybe I want some socks to. I need more blankets, even though I have six on my bed. I want books too. The last thing on this list is a laptop. You better be taking notes so you know what to get me. So I’ve been super good this year. Please o’ please put me on the nice list and keep me there. I’m nice, and help my mom. I watch my siblings and I’m nice to them. (Usually not always). I’m really hoping you like me. Please put me on the nice list! MERRY CH RISTMAS! Love, Your favorite kid in the whole world, Jordynn Jewett

Dear Santa,

My name is Leslie Orr, and I’m a very acceptable kid. Also I’m writing you to analyze why you should allow me to get presents. How have you been St. Nick? I have been very pleasing this year. I pray that you put me on the nice list, okay, big guy . You know me right, that kid that did not yell at his brother. Yeah, that’s me! I have been very excellent this year by helping others and being kind. I also help my brothers when he is hurt, most of the time. You know that kid, right! I also pray that they succeed in life. I know what you are thinking. Why should I be on the nice list? I’m good!!! I have some very important questions to ask you, Mr. Claus? Who did you get the idea from to bring presents to kids? How did you start your life? How do you eat all those cookies? Do you like the cookies I give each year? Which do you prefer sugar or chocolate cookies? How much family do you have? Who is your favorite reindeer ? Do you like Jack Frost? For Christmas I would like shoes, Nikes, iphone, a bean bag chair, remotes, clothes, basketball, baseball bat, football, catcher’s gear, gloves, hoverboard, hats,and socks. Also, I would like a very, very good Christmas this year. Throw back to the 2nd paragraph I’m giving more than I am receiving . Last of all I deserve it because I help and pray. Have a Merry Christmas. Also if my brother does not stop acting up put him on the naughty list. Sincerely , A very, very, very deserving Leslie Orr P.S I’m a good kid.

Dear Santa,

Hi, my name is Sophia Kochensparger, even though you probably remember me. I have been on the nice list since I have been born. This year I have been…mostly good. It was kind of hard because of my two brothers making it a little rough. But I survived! I have been exceptional good in a handful of ways this year. I have helped kids, turned in all my homework, and sometimes help the teachers. At home I help with drying dishes, I help make dinner, dust, and vacuum the living room or any other place. I am pleasing to my friends by sometimes helping them with work, making them laugh, and making them feel better. One thing that you should remember about me is that I have helped my parents a lot. I will try not to persuade them so much anymore to get what I want, even though I’m pretty deserving. Now, the questions. Who is your favorite reindeer? What are your favorite kinds of cookies? Do you shop for some Christmas toys, or do your elves make all them? Do you remember my amazing elf on the shelf Elsa? Have you been to Starbucks? Which do you prefer: a gingerbread house or fresh baked cookies? What do you do during the summer? Where do your elves live? Why can’t my elf on the shelf stay all year? Does Elsa cause mischief? Here is my Christmas list: a camera, a laptop for the family, a Starbucks gift card to give to my mom, (maybe $100) and you do great job finding toys to take up my day. Like one year, I had a cozy chair to lay on and play with my toys, which I loved that. I have worked so hard this year, and I could use a day off where we just relax and play all day. Thank you for all the amazing gifts every year, and I know I’ll have a wonderful Christmas this year. Also, thank you for all you do, it must be a little hard doing that all in one night. Sincerely, Sophia Kochensparger

Dear Santa,

Hello, I’m Reghan I have been SUPER GOOD this year. Here are all of reasons that I have been SUPER GOOD this year. I have not been bad at all this year! I have been wonderful this year and not been bad because I have been nice to my friends, I get my homework done, and I take my dog outside when she needs to go to the bathroom. I also help my family when they ask me to help them. I have some questions to ask that you need to answer BEFORE Christmas, if you have time. How many elves do you have? How many cookies do you eat every year on Christmas Eve? Which reindeer is your favorite? Here is the list of presents I really want for Christmas. I have three things on the list. 1. Virtual reality 2. Minecraft stuff 3. Minecraft toys I deserve these gifts because I was wonderful this year and not horrible. I was really spectacular this year. Merry Christmas!!!!! Sincerely, Reghan Neanen-Creech

Dear Santa Claus,

I’m sure you already know me because I have been soooo amazing this year. I can do 1,000 chores before you can say ZIP, so you don’t need to check the nice list twice to see that my name is on there. I have been doing chores at home like laundry, cleaning, fluffing the Christmas tree, making my bed, doing homework, helping Lily with hers and the list goes on and on. I am also good to my friends and family and all the chores I have done proves it. I have only TWO things that I really really want and they are….. A fin fun mermaid tail And a mermaid tail blanket I think I deserve these things, and if I get them then I will be good next year too, I promise. P.S Hope you like the cookies we will leave for you!! Thank you, Mary Wilson
