I thought you might like it, too.

Mama, did you know Santa was born in Guatemala? Just like me! He lived there before his mama came to pick him up. And then she did, and he lives at the North Pole now.

In fact, I got to visit Santa at the North Pole before you came to pick me up. [Ed. note: Plausible, since he was born in July and came home in March....he had to celebrate that first Christmas somehow, right?] I took the Polar Express to the North Pole and then came back to Guatemala. My foster mom went with me.

Merry Christmas!

His answers:

  • A flashlight
  • A jingle bell

Somehow, I think Santa can handle that.

Let this be a lesson to all you aunts, uncles, and grandparents [no one related to me, of course] who are prone to buying the latest, greatest, loudest, most complex toys: Children really do want cardboard boxes.
