While going about our bedtime routine, Kelsey asked me what was on my Christmas list.
I chuckled and said that the health of my family and friends were the only things I would write on mine. That is the truth.
She giggled and said, “Is that more important than hot new toys?” Then she thought about it for a minute and said, “I guess it is. Is it ok for kids to want the hot new toys, though?” as if she was speaking a ToysRUs commercial!
“Of course it is. Adults want children to have the hot new toys that make them smile,” I replied.
After another few mintues and a conversation change, she brought me paper and a pen. On it, she wrote:
Dear Santa,
My mom wants health for her family and friends. Maybe you could take away Mr. Needle, too?
Love,
Kelsey
She said all I needed to say. Santa, now you officially know my Christmas wish.
