Dear Santa

Dear Santa…

I guess you noticed I was feeling kind of shy on Saturday night when I sat on your lap. I hope I didn’t hurt your feelings! I know I didn’t cry, but I wasn’t very excited either…

I think I was just confused about why I was sitting with you instead of Mommy or Daddy.

Anyway, Santa, there are some things I wanted to talk to you about that I didn’t mention on Saturday. Mostly, I wanted to explain my behavior and ask you a serious question.

You see, Santa, I am a very curious baby. You might think I’m just being bad. Causing trouble. Giving Mommy and Daddy grief. But, I really just like to explore…

 For example, I like to pull things out of the pantry…

 After all, I help with the grocery shopping, so why can’t I help with the cooking?

 I recently got a new car seat, and I liked checking it out…

My old car seat is pretty fun to play with too!

Who needs real toys when you have something to climb on?

There are things to explore all over the house, Santa!

Exploring and “rearranging” are my two specialties. I know you’re proud of me!

I like to get exercise all day long. I don’t just sit around…can’t call me lazy!

Look! Here, I’m doing my daily stretches!

I’ll admit that I have a hard time lying still for diaper changes. It’s just too tough when I know there are things that need to be done…

…like looking for kitties! It’s a big priority of mine right now…

I promise that I’m nice to them, Santa!

Mommy and Daddy may have told you that I’m getting some new teeth right now…

But I’ve been a perfect angel the whole time! :)

And, for the record…

…I’d like for you to know…

…that I’m really great with the Christmas tree!

I know you’re proud of me for that, right Santa?

I love to look at its pretty lights, but I usually don’t mess with it too much!

What do you think, Santa? I’m sure you can tell that I’m a really good girl! I never cause trouble; I just like to learn and see new things.

I’ve heard that you bring presents to all the good little girls and boys…

I just have one little question for you, Santa:

Just how good do I have to be?!?
