Dear Family, Santa ate too many Frosted Flakes for breakfast and I had to help make him a new belt before I returned back to you. I replaced the Frosted Flakes with snowflakes. I think his belt will fit now. XO
Dear Family, Don’t eat the Christmas decorations. My mom told me that I Hate some when I was young and got Tinselitis. XO
Dear Family, Last night when I went to the North Pole, the northern lights were very bright. I saw green, pink, blue, and violet. I wish I could show you. Make sure you look them up online. XO
Dear Family, Good morning. I am extra tired today. There was a long line at elf customs. There are so many elves visiting elf headquarters. Be really quiet so I can rest. XO
