Just last week I wondered about the fate of my e-mail to Santa Claus. But mere days after that post, the jolly old elf checked his email and tendered his reply. I note that he didn’t address my specific desires, which incidentally included good weather on Christmas Eve so everyone could be with their families on Christmas Day. But he did send a very warm note, copied below. Thanks, Santa.
My dear little friend Barbie Glen,
Well, I just turned on my computer a few minutes ago, and lo and behold, there was your email! It’s so nice to hear from you.

Are you looking forward to Christmas? We certainly are. It’s the most magical time of the year. We’re all very busy you know-Mrs. Claus, the elves, the reindeer and, of course, Santa himself. Ho! Ho! Ho! Everyone’s working together to make sure this is the best Christmas ever for boys and girls all over the world.
We had our annual Christmas concert a few days ago. The Elf-Time Singers sang all my favourite holiday songs, including Santa Claus is Coming to Town. The North Pole Prancers treated us to some great dancing as they sailed across the stage, up into the sky and then back down again in a flurry of fur and antlers. Guess what everyone had for a treat at intermission? Snow cones!
Well, dear little friend, thanks again for your email. I’m always so pleased to find messages like yours in my inbox. Please remember to email next year!
Love,
Santa
