Dear Santa:
1 should have written to you
before because l imagine you
have most of your toys packed. I
have been SO busy learning my
parts for our Christmas program
in school. l am in two plays, a
drill, a song and the rhythm band.
This is quite a bit for a little girl
seven years old and in the second
grade. Don't you think SO? But
have tried real hard and now 1
am almost ready for the night to
come. Miss Hansen says that if
we say, 81 think I can" we can
always get cur work done on
time.
1 have twin sisters, Beatrice
and Berniece, and three older
brothers. The twins are five years
old. They would like a wetting
doll and would enjoy a washing
machine and little sewing
machine SO I can learn to wash
and sew like my mother.
Hoping to see you real soon
I am yours always,
Rita Kalkhoff.
