[Pages:6]Block 15/17 ? Letter to Santa

Hosted by Pat Sloan At

I have always loved writing a letter to Santa. The whole planning,

thinking about it, and looking in the catalogs for items was magical.

like extra frosting on the best birthday cake.

Being the oldest, I also helped my younger brothers write their

Block is 9.5" x 9.5"

letters. We never did hear back from Santa like you can today.

Finished size 9" x 9"

I think mom might have just kept the letters in a special box hidden very well.

Nowdays stores have darling mailboxes you can post the letter in. And places you can write and get a note back. I love ALL of this!

The magic begins with believing, and as an adult I still believe in the good of people .. maybe we need to write more letters.
