He wrote a letter to Santa- If you send them to our local paper, they print them. This year he wrote:
Dear Santa,
You don't have to bring me anything for Christmas this year. I already got what I wanted. I got my baby brothers in February and I got Barack Obama in November. I'm happy with that and you can give my toys to someone who needs them more.
Josh (age 8)
I am so proud of my boy. I am thinking of photocopying the letter and sending it to Obama. I thought if he were to see it he might get a kick out of it.
And sad that Santa won't be a reality much longer for him. I'm surprised he still believes NOW.
15. WOW! Thank you all so much for the compliments!
I did make a copy of the letter. I decided to keep the original and I made photocopies to send in to the newspaper Santa letter thingy and to Obama's office.
I hope Obama knows how many children he has inspired. I realize that most kids will echo their parents' political views, but I have never seen children as TRULY INSPIRED as I have with Obama.
That is precious beyond words. Good on you for raising such a wonderful little human being. Give him some DU hugs for me! :hug: We need more kids like your Josh. An unselfish 8-year-old is a rare child indeed.
