Letters to Santa

Dear Maia and Kiran,

So much time has gone by and I have not taken the time to write it all down. I will do my best from here on out to at least write something, even it is something we did or something you said, for my sake as well as yours. You both wrote your letters to Santa and I wanted to type them in for safe keeping. I will make a copy. Maia you are a gorgeous seven year old girl who is very much besotted with your babies...they are real to you and I understand, as I was the same at your age. You are a very kind and gentle hearted Mumma and you beg me on a regular basis to have another baby or you both say to me, "Mumma's having a baby!" with a wishful look in your eyes. I really only have two hands and I know I can only manage two kids. I have found the mothering road to be emotionally challenging at times, but I love you both with all my heart and soul. You are such a blessing in my life and I really am so glad that you both chose me as your mother. Kiran you are a very active and happy little fella who, now approaching the age of five, you are able to articulate yourself so clearly. You are a very kind and loving little boy with a great sense of determination that sometimes has me reeling with frustration, but it will get you somewhere in life I am sure! You love TRUCKS and enjoy playing with anything with wheels. You are very curious about how things work and love to see the cause and effect of putting something together and taking it apart. You have a terrible habit of hitting and hurting your sister at time if she is not doing what you want her to do and I find that incredibly irritating...she is coming in crying now. Anyway, we will get there and I love you both. Here are your letters to Santa this year at ages 7 and 4 (soon to be 5).

Dear Santa,

My name is Kiran and my Mom is writing this letter for me. Here are some of the presents that I would like for Christmas: 1. Cement truck that has a barrel that turns and when your ready to dump it, the sand dumps down the shoot, 2. Rubbish Truck that is small, but I can ride on, 3. two truck, 4. a truck like Amen's size, except a tow truck with a pulley, 5. Monster truck that is remote control.

Love, Kiran

Dear Santa,

Could you bring me a big doll house, a baby like Sera, a stuff duck, a cradle, a baby from the toy shop, a small and a big pony, Sylvania Sheep and a kitten.

Love, Maia
