Subject: [RecipesAndMore] Letter to Santa
letter to santa,,too cute not to share,,For all you moms out there
*Dear Santa,* **
* I've been a good mom all year. I've fed, cleaned and cuddled my*
**
* Children on demand, visited the doctor's office more than my doctor and*
**
* Sold sixty-two cases of candy bars to raise money to plant a shade tree*
**
* On the school playground. I was hoping you could spread my list out over*
**
* Several Christmases, since I had to write this letter with my son's red*
**
* Crayon, on the back of a receipt in the laundry room between cycles, and*
**
* Who knows when I'll find anymore free time in the next 18 years.*
**
* Here are my Christmas wishes:*
**
* I'd like a pair of legs that don't ache (in any color, except*
* Purple, which I already have) and arms that don't hurt or flap in the*
* Breeze, but are strong enough to pull my screaming child out of the candy
*
* Aisle in the grocery store.*
**
* I'd also like a waist, since I lost mine somewhere in the seventh*
* Month of my last pregnancy.*
**
* If you're hauling big ticket items this year I'd like*
* Fingerprint resistant windows and a radio that only plays adult music, a*
* Television that doesn't broadcast any programs containing talking*
* Animals, and a refrigerator with a secret compartment behind the crisper*
* Where I can hide to talk on the phone.*
**
**
* On the practical side, I could use a talking doll that says,*
* 'Yes, Mommy' to boost my parental confidence, along with two kids who*
* Don't fight and three pairs of jeans that will zip all the way up without
*
* The use of power tools.*
**
* I could also use a recording of Tibetan monks chanting 'Don't eat*
* In the living room' and 'Take your hands off your brother,' because my*
* Voice seems to be just out of my children's hearing range and can only be
*
* Heard by the dog.*
**
* If it's too late to find any of these products, I'd settle for*
* Enough time to brush my teeth and comb my hair in the same morning, or*
* The luxury of eating food warmer than room temperature without it being*
* Served in a Styrofoam container.*
**
* If you don't mind, I could also use a few Christmas miracles to*
* Brighten the holiday season. Would it be too much trouble to declare*
* Ketchup a vegetable? It will clear my conscience immensely. It would be*
* Helpful if you could coerce my children to help around the house without*
* Demanding payment as if they were the bosses of an organized crime*
* Family.*
**
* Well, Santa, the buzzer on the dryer is calling and my son saw my*
* Feet under the laundry room door. I think he wants his crayon back. Have*
* A safe trip and remember to leave your wet boots by the door and come in*
* And dry off so you don't catch cold.*
**
* Help yourself to cookies on the table but don't eat too many or*
* Leave crumbs on the carpet. (you promised me last year you would lose*
* Some weight with me so next year you and I could be a cute size two*
* Blonde...ok, some requests go too far, but none the less.....*
**
* Yours Always,*
* MOM...*
**
* P.S. One more thing...you can cancel all my requests if you can*
* Keep my children, healthy, safe and of course, young enough to always*
*Believe in Santa.*
Merry Christmas
