Dear Santa Claus {Reality Version}

Dear Santa Claus,


I realize my last letter lost touch with reality, but there was no reason for the snooty phone call from your Head Elf. I sincerely apologize for my greediness. There's no way I can expect you to come through on the pool boy or the sound-proof craft room. 


I got carried away. 


I thought I'd tone it down a bit and send you another list. This one is more doable, I think.


1. Mr. Coffee espressso maker from Target

2. I love this ruffle bag from Old Navy





3. Cute jewelry

4. Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Crafts

5. Subscriptions to All You and Family Circle magazines

6. Gift card to JoAnn Fabric to feed my crafting addiction


7. Jute rug

8. A weekly babysitter (Sorry, I couldn't resist)


Thanks for giving me a second chance, Santa. 


I don't want to be on the Naughty List with my 4 year old, who told a friend she'll be receiving "dirty sticks and a fire rock" (coal) in her stocking this year. It's been a rough week.


Good luck on Christmas Eve!

    I'll see if I can't call Santa and give a good recommendation for both of you girls. A great connection is always a good thing!!!!! :)

    Wishing you the best and that Santa's sleigh is full of good things for y'all.

    Mr. Coffee makes an espresso maker? How cool is that? I don't think Santa could resist that. . . .

    Good list! I saw one of those espresso makers at Target yesterday, but I didn't have the heart to ask my DH for it. Maybe I should ask Santa, too!

    Hope you get at least some of what's on your list! Isn't Family Circle one of the magazines that Amazon has on sale right now?

I love to hear your feedback! Please feel free to leave comments...just don't send me spam asking me to buy stuff off your website! I've got three kids and no money to purchase your magic weight-loss pill or bust enhancement, or whatever else you might be selling. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! :)
