Hi, how are you?

I hope you remember me. A year is a long time after all so it might be hard to remember every cub ever, but I'm sure you can do it cause you're Santa. But I understand if you forgot me. That's why I'm writing, so you'll remember me.

I tried really hard to be good this year, but it's been really really hard because sometimes I don't know how to deal with my feelings, and they boil up and I say the wrong things or don't say the right things. So I made some mistakes and I'm really really sorry for them, and I understand if you put me on the bad list cause I probably deserve it...

This is gonna be my last year being four. I decided I'm ready to grow up and be five so on June 6th I'll turn five and I'm scared I might not believe in you then. I'll try to, but I've never been five before, and I don't know how to do it right.

So anyway I should probably get to the main reason for this letter. What I want for Christmas. It isn't much...

1. I want some new pencils and a sketchbook because mine is almost full. I promise to draw lots of pictures for my friends over the next year!
2. I want my friends to be happy because a lot of them aren't.
3. For my cat to stop having fleas because she's been having them a lot and nothing we do will make them go away.
4. More time to spend with those I love.
5. For the world not to end like they say it's gonna. At least not for a little while longer, because there's still a lot of things I need to do and I might get in trouble if I don't finish them.

That's about it. I hope you get my letter and I promise to leave cookies out for you on Christmas Eve, and I promise to only eat two of them... okay, three of them.

From,
Jerry
