December marches on


"Somehow, not only for Christmas

 but all the long year through, 

The joy that you give to others 

Is the joy that comes back to you.

 And the more you spend in blessing 

The poor and lonely and sad, 

The more of your heart's possessing 

Returns to you glad"
John Greenleaf Whittier

LETTERS TO SANTA
Santa, am I really going to get a piece of coal? My 3 year old told me today, "Mom, Santa's going to bring you a piece of coal."

My Daddy says that my halo is still in the shop. They had to order extra parts because it needed so many repairs but it should be ready for Chrismas!
- Sara, 10, Hamilton, Ontario.

What type of fuel do you use for your sleigh or are your reindeers just hyper? Either way, I hope you won't miss our house.
- Matt, 11, Greenfield, Ohio.

Last year we left out for you a piece of mince pie and a beer, but when we got up next morning we noticed a bit of icing was taken from the Christmas cake. Mum said you must have been extra hungry!
- Paul, 7, Rayleigh, United Kingdom.

Where did you get the magic dust that makes the reindeer fly? Can I get some?
- Rachel, 8, North Rose, New York.

Santa should lose some weight so that ruldolph doesnt have to work so hard

Oh by the way, my cancer is all gone this year and my hair has grown back. You might night recognize me so I will leave you a new picture
