Dear Santa,
We are going to give you a present that’s golden glass. Why doesn’t our green pen work? This letter is from Piper Angeline MacDonald. I have the Rudolph movie, you are in it. Our refrigerator door doesn’t work.* How are the elves? Why do all the elves work all day and all night? You were a baby once, right? Silly, silly baby Santa. I’ve been good this year. I’ve been all day happy. I’ve been helping Mama cook. I want candy canes**, pumpkins, please. I would like something that is round, that has a tail, nose, ears and a mouth. It’s a poodle. I want a toy poodle. That’s it. Please and thank you.
Safe travels, take care of the elves.
Piper

* The refrigerator door has long been fixed.
** She doesn’t actually like candy canes, please don’t buy her any.
You know what’s really cool? If you mail your letter to Santa here, he (or a dedicated volunteer team of letter writing elves) will write you back. Thanks Canada Post!

Have you decided? Are the MacDonald’s getting a poodle for Christmas?
We have successfully talked her down to a turtle after her birthday. Phew!
