Christmas is almost here and that means Santa has his list and he’s checking it twice. Here are some of the letters local children wrote to the jolly old elf at the North Pole:

December 8, 2015

Santa Claus

North Pole

Dear Santa,

I am 3 years old and this will be my 4th Christmas!

I have been to see you several times this year and I love to talk with you now, unlike my first few Christmases!

I am a very good boy and love to share my toys with my family and friends. I do very well at preschool every day and get a sticker or a stamp to show that I’m a good listener too!

My favorite movie is Star Wars and I love Legos – and if I could get those two toys combined, it would be perfect! I have some Star Wars Legos already and I play with them ALL DAY and take them everywhere I go!

Thank you so much for letting me visit you this year at the North Pole too! I had so much fun riding the Polar Express last week and getting to tell you what I want for Christmas in person!

I wanted to let you know that we are taking very good care of the Elf that you sent to our house. I’ve been a good boy and I’m sure that Luke has nothing but good reports to give you!

Santa, thank you so much for all the hard work you and the elves do all year and just like last year, I will be sure that my mom & dad leave plenty of cookies for you and carrots for all the reindeer.

Love,

Jacob Scott Knight, 3 1/2

Dear Santa,

All that I have asked for for Christmas is a pair of Paw Patrol shoes. I had a Paw Patrol birthday. And can you please bring my dog Cayce a new rope so we can play? My Mommy and Daddy say I’ve been a very good boy this year and that I am a loving and caring boy to everybody. Do reindeer really fly?

Michael Lessard, 4

From students in Jessy Belue’s first grade class at Riverview Elementary:

Dear Santa,

I have been good. I have been calm, respectful and caring. I am 6 ½. I live in Sutton Place. How long are your days? How cold is it up there? My birthday is Valentine’s Day. How many elves do you have? How old are you? I would like a sled, my own IPad and ice skates.

What is it like at the North Pole? Is it fun? Do the elves do a lot? How do the elves make presents? Do they like making presents? Have I been good this year? Has my brother been good?

And please if you get me one please get my brother one or he is going to whine.
