I am so thankful that this wonderful act of kindness can still be done after all these years. Though my children are grown, I will be able to see my 3 grandsons eyes as they open a letter from Santa and his helpers this Christmas season. With the way the economy is , this act of kindness could be the only thing a lot of the children will be getting this Christmas season. But the joy they will have to be able to show that they received a letter from Santa and his helpers from the North Pole before he had to deliver other gifts. Or a parent might say that Santa was only sending letters this year because he was so busy or sick. But parents can be clever when they have to think of something quick or you are trying to stretch 50 cents when you really need a dollar. So GOD BLESS each of you this Christmas season as you put a smile on all the little girls and boys faces as they open the letters addressed to them. Maggie Hicks, York, PA
