To Dear Santa with Love

"Christmas and children go together. So do their stories and versions and comments about Christmas." -ArthurTonne
Christmas is for children for they are the ones who are innocent enough, and candidly open to life's blessings and wonders, to really feel the awe and wondrous magic of the season. And they believe in the trappings and traditions of Yuletide. To some adults, Christmas is humbug and a meaningless exercise in futility. But leave it to children to see the truth behind the practice. Never their joy diminish.

No wonder that kids are too thrilled about the coming Christmas and these four Japinos are no exception. Just give them a hint, and then you cannot stop them from writing down their greetings and wishes to Santa Claus. Ah, the enthusiasm of the young! And they are fervent in their hope that through Santa's magic, their desires would be granted.
