SANTA LETTER

大毛孩七歲半了, 對SANTA深信不疑.

今年的SANTA LETTER FIRST VERSION:

Dear Santa,

This year I've been good.  I helped my mom with the garden.  I helped taking care of my sister.  I tested to orange belt at Karate and I also passed the piano test.  I also went to the next grade.  I am in 2nd Grade now. 

This year I want a pet dog.  Please get it at a shelter.  Can you name it SPIKE?

Choose an answer:

Yes        No

Have a nice Christmas, Santa!

看了之後讓我們頭痛不已. 要什麽不行, 幹嘛非要小狗兒呢? 現在我們真的沒有精力照顧他/她.  而且大毛孩是過敏體質, 小毛孩也太小.

於是我就開始BAD MOUTH 小狗兒:  大毛孩, A DOG MIGHT PEE OR POO ON YOUR HOMEWORK, YOUR GAMEBOY, DS OR PSP.

他想了想:  WE COULD TRAIN THE DOG.

"BUT ACCIDENT DOES HAPPEN SOMETIMES.  ALSO, IT MIGHT LOSE HAIR E-V-E-R-Y-W-H-E-R-E IN THE HOUSE.  PLUS IT WILL BARK AT NIGHT, WAKING UP EVERYBODY IN THE FAMILY" 

於是他又加了幾句在SANTA LETTER 上: 

"And can you tell it not to pee or poo or do anything to my stuff.  Also can you get one that does not lose hair.

Oh yeah can you get a blonde one and it will not bark at night."

哎, 我真沒折了!!

LG 上陣:  大毛孩, DO YOU KNOW THERE IS A MAD DOG DISEASE?  THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE DIED OF THAT DISEASE.  DO YOU WANT TO RUN THE RISK? ......

終於把他嚇到了.  又寫了一封信:

DEAR SANTA,

I HAVE BEEN GOOD THIS YEAR.  I HELPED LOOKING AFTER THE BABY, MY SISTER AND I HELPED TKING OUT THE GARBAGE.  I WOULD LIKE A SOCCER BALL AND POKEMON DRAGON FRONTIER CARDS.  AS FOR MY SISTER -- A TOY STROLLER.

LOVE,

XX

TOTOLLY ACCEPTABLE!!! 我們總算放了心.

可又遇到了新問題, 幾家TOYS R US 居然都RUN OUT OF POKEMON CARDS!  網上訂也來不及了.  我和LG分頭跑了幾家專門賣卡的店, 到昨天才賣到了他要的卡.

當SANTA 不容易啊!
