It's been a long time since I've written you a letter, and an even longer time since I've been a kid. But this year - well, Sir - something's very different about this year. I feel more like a kid: more carefree, more wanting to enjoy the simplest pleasures of my life, more needing You and the things you stand for.
I've been a fairly good boy this year. I haven't been perfect. In fact, I haven't even tried. I know you know this. You have that list. I can only hope that my good things hae outweighed my bad things this year. I've tried to be good - it just hasn't always worked.
So I have a really small list this year. I"m sure you're busy, like you are every year, but if you could bring them to me, it would put a good end on a year that needs a good end.
1 - I would like the Mom of my kids to be civil to me this year. She's not been, as you know, for a long time. I've not been perfect either, but I've held my tongue and tried to be decent. I believe I have. But this Christmas, I hope her marriage mellows her and that she can manage to see that not everything that happens in this world is a direct affront to her. But, I don't even need her to be civil to me. I just need her to accept the fact that I'm my babies' Daddie and that I'm going to be a part of their lives, no matter how much she may not want me to.
2 - I would like my babies to know, even though they're young, that their Daddie loves them. I know that this is my job, but, like I said, they're young - maybe too young to really know what's up. And they have a new man in the house and I'm a long, long way from them. Just help them remember their Daddie and that he loves them.
3 - I would like some courage. I'm starting school again not long after Christmas, chasing a dream I've had ever since I was a kid. I'm scared about where it's going to go and, moreso, my ability to be a student. I wasn't a good one when I was young, and I don't think nearly as well as I did then. I want this, but I'm not sure I have what it takes. You know, Santa, that it won't stop me, but I could use the shot in the arm.
4 - Can I have a night of bliss with Aphrodisiac? She's darned hot, as you well know. And I'm sure she's on your bad girl's list. That's all the more reason for me to want it, isn't it?
5 - A Playstation 2 with the WWF Smackdown game. That's the only gadget I really want. You know how much I like wrestling. I just want JR to yell my name like he does on TV.
So that's all, Santa. Nothing here is really impossible and I'm sure you can manage all of them. Thank you for reading, and remember that I still believe in you.
