Here is Alec’s letter to Santa that was transcribed for him by one of his teachers. Unfortunately for Alec, when he was home with pink-eye, his class took a field trip to the post office to mail their letters. He was concerned that Santa would not know what he wanted.
I told him to share the info with Mark the Elf.
I am sure you know what that got me.
So next option- I e-mailed Santa. Being the clever gal that I am- I had not yet shown Alec the Portable North Pole e-mail I had created for him. He was in awe when I opened up the ‘response’ from Santa. Of course Alec thought he was skyping with Santa so he couldn’t figure out why Santa wasn’t talking back to him.
I was completely thrilled that his request had changed from a dress-up area to other items. Not that I have a problem with dress-up but because we had not yet figured out how to complete this task.
It took a little detective work to figure out what a play bridge is. OK maybe not.
It just took me saying ‘Alec does Santa know what a play bridge is?’
Turns out it is one of those Matchbox/Hot Wheels tall launcher things. Technical I know.
Now that was something Santa could do.
It was questionable whether Santa would bring Alec a gun. There were many long discussions about it. Dad and Mom doubted Santa would bring a gun. Alec was convinced that he ‘knows not to shoot nature’ so Santa would bring one.
FYI- people are not included as nature in Alec’s world.
Yikes.
