Being a single parent is hard people. So when Christmas comes around, why not use whatever ammunition's at my disposal to help mold my little guy into the type of guy he should be molded into???
Here's a copy of the letter he's getting from Santa this year...hehe
December 15, 2005
Dear XXXXX,
I’ve heard you been a wonderful boy this year! The Elves, Mrs. Claus and I are very proud of you! Below is a list of great behaviors that have placed you on the Good List:
1. Helping your mommy by picking up your toys
2. Being courteous and apologizing when you hurt someone’s feelings
3. Doing your homework
4. Help your mommy in the morning by brushing your teeth
5. Letting Otis out when he has to go potty
6. Being a loving and kind human being
Thank you for being such a great kid this year. It makes my job a lot easier! And I’m sorry this letter is so late in the month. I had a lot of Bad List letters I had to send out to boys and girls who are getting coal in their stockings this year.
Love,
Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, the Elves and the Reindeer
P.S. Don’t forget to leave cookies and milk out for me on Christmas Eve. It’s a lot of work delivering presents and I need to keep my energy up! HO! HO! HO!
P.S.S. Also, remember when you have sleep overs to listen to your mommy and get to bed on time! Little boys who don’t get enough sleep don’t grow up to be big strong men. In fact they don't grow very tall at all. In case you’re wondering, that’s were all the tiny Elves who slave in my toy shop come from (children who don’t get enough sleep). And I’m pretty sure you won’t like wearing the leotards the Elves have to wear because they itch and also a bit tight in areas I won’t mention. HMAO!!!
P.S.S.S. And no more sneaking downstairs while Mommy is asleep and watching racy shows on HBO and Cinemax. I know you're a growing boy, but my goodness!!!
Awesome Mommy
Such a wonderful idea, Charm. Your child is so fortunate to have such an intelligent and creative loving Mother. Happy New Year to you and yours and may 2006 bring you all the blessings you richly deserve.
