SORRY I COULDN'T BE HERE TODAY, MRS. CLAUS SENT ME ON AN ERRAND, *AND YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE TO LISTEN TO MRS. CLAUS, RIGHT?* HO!HO!HO! 

I WAS HOPING TO TAKE YOU ALL ON A TOUR OF MY WORKSHOP, BUT SINCE I CAN'T DO THAT THIS YEAR, I HAVE LEFT YOU A LITTLE GIF(T). 

COME ON BACK NEXT YEAR, AND WE'LL DO THAT TOUR!! HO!HO!HO! 

IN THE MEANTIME - REMEMBER TO BE GOOD BOYS AND GIRLS.  I AM STILL KEEPING THAT LIST OF MINE, AND YOU SURELY WANT TO BE ON THE NICE SIDE - RIGHT?? HO! HO!HO! 

WELL GRAB YOUR GIF(T) THEN AND WE'LL SEE YOU ON CHRISTMAS EVE. 

Love
Santa
