Here's just a sampling of some of the letters to Santa we've received. More letters may be found inside today's Lifestyles section, as well as the special insert in today's paper. All letters appear just as they were written.
Dear Santa,
My name is Gabrielle. I am 11 months old. I have been a good baby this year. Since this is my first Christmas, I will be happy with whatever you bring me. Also, I have an 8-year-old sister whose name is Ashley. She has been good this year also. She would like a big dollhouse. I will leave you some milk and cookies and carrots for your reindeer under the Christmas tree.
P.S. Please be quiet so I don't wake up and keep Mom and Daddy up the rest of the night. Thanks.
Love,
Gabrielle Bradford, Age 11 months
