With all the struggle that comes with being a parent, and even the struggle that shouldn’t come with being a parent, the memories and treasured moments I’ve shared with my 4-year-old are among the happiest times of my life.
Especially when it comes to the holidays.
He’s finally at the age where he’s grasped the whole concept of Christmas and asking Santa for things and his wish list is adorably crazy. You know when someone wakes you up from a deep sleep and you’re so stunned you try to sound coherent, but it’s basically just REALLY confident gibberish?
That’s the constant state of a 4-year-old. Highly recommend owning one.
The following letter is a direct dictation from my kid. It’s REAL ridiculous. I made some notes. Enjoy.
