Santa letters included in today’s edition

Children across the Tri-City area have penned their letters to Santa and eagerly are awaiting his trip tonight.
The Daily Review’s Christmas Eve edition includes hundreds of these letters to Santa. Many asked for iPhones, Xboxes and anything from the movie “Frozen,” but there were a few children who had other requests.
Aliz in kindergarten at M.D. Shannon decided to ask for more traditional gifts — blocks and a box of crayons.
Because Santa knows everyone — as well as who is on the naughty and nice lists — many letter writers didn’t feel the need to include last names.
Cecelia, in second grade at Stephensville Elementary, was far more concerned with questions about the North Pole.
“How are you and Ms. Claus doing? How do you travol around the word in one night? I want a ipod and a new my life doll. For Chrismeas. How meany Efl ‘s do you have? How meany rander do you have?”
Iylan Groves, who attends second grade at Berwick Elementary, had unique wishes: “I would like a pet anaconda. I would also like some ants and a antfarm. Can I please have a science kit and a art kit.”
Some students are more concerned about others than themselves.
Kyle, a second-grader at J.B. Maitland, asked Santa “How are you at the North Pole? I hope you bring medicine for my mom. I hope me, Kim, and Ashley get presents and other kids get presents too. Merry Christmas Santa.”
Finally, Bryan Wiggins, a first-grade student at Holy Cross Elementary, said he is a good student in class.
“I hav A+’s on Reeligin testis. How do yor elfs wrking on Christmas. Tomaro you com and I cannot wait for Christmas. I am sad kus I’m on the nawty list. I help my mom. I wundr if I am on the good list now. I wunt hungry hippose, esea bake ofin, hot wheels workshop, and two robots that fite and last a xbox.”
Letters to Santa were received from J.S. Aucoin, Bayou Vista, Berwick, Holy Cross, J.B. Maitland, M.E. Norman, M.D. Shannon, Stephensville, Hattie Watts and Wyandotte elementary school students.
