This is the first year Finn comprehends Santa Claus. He knows there is a Good List and a Naughty List and that you want to see your name on the "Good List". I find myself using this to my benefit when I need him to behave. Did parents invent the Good List/Bad List to keep their children in line? Genius!! It works.
Polar Express Note Card
Today was the selected day to write Finn's letter and mail it off to Santa. I have Polar Express Notecards and thought this would be ideal stationary for a safe and expedited journey to the North Pole. Finn new exactly what train was on the notecard when I laid it on the table this morning, added to his excitement!
Santa's Address - North Pole
*You will actually get a letter back from the North Pole*
The Letter
I had so much fun working on this with Finn, with every new childhood experience I share with him I find myself younger in spirit and closer to my own memories of childhood. He surprised me with only wanting to list two items....I asked twice if that was all and he held up two fingers and said "just two".
Mailing the Letter
*This morning before school/work*
Double Checking
So, will Finn see presents or coal Christmas morning? Depends on the next 23 days....will keep you posted on his list status!
