Dear Santa: Local kids’ letters

MICHAEL ORVIS DREW this excellent picture for Santa in lieu of a list.

ADDISON COUNTY — Each year we ask families to send in their letters to Santa so that we can share them with the big man — and print them in our paper. Here’s a selection of this year’s letters from kids around the county.
If you still need help getting into the Christmas spirit, read the classic “Yes, Virginia…” editorial we have reprinted in our paper, partly in the hopes that parents will take the time to read it aloud to children of appropriate ages and for all to reflect on the less commercial aspects of this holiday season.
