Dear Santa,Well it's me once again. Mrs.Williams and I have been trying tobe very good to our new group ofstudents this year. It has been a verytrying year so far. I hope ourpatience doesn't wear out before thisschool year is over because if itdoes, some boys and girls are goingto be very unfortunate. I have beenwaiting on this time of year toupdate you on all the things that aregoing on around here. I'm sorry thatI don't get to write you but once ayear but I know you understandabout that once a year thing. I prayyou find it in your heart to try andgrant the wish of each and everystudent that wrote you a letter fromSouth Mississippi, especiallyMcLain, MS even though they mayhave fibbed a little about being sogood. Santa, can you please bringmy students some new crayons andglue sticks? We need them badly. Iam so blessed to have a very ener-getic group of students this year, sothis is what I need you to do. If youcan, take some of that energy bybringing them a gift that can wearthem down before they come toschool in the mornings. I want totake the time out to thank the par-ents for allowing me the opportuni-ty to educate their child. Thanks forallowing me to be a part of theirblooming process. I know you havebeen watching and I told them youhave your eyes open and your earsare listening. I pray that your jour-ney is a safe one as you travel theworld spreading love and joy bybringing the gifts to all good girlsand boys. I would like to say that nomatter what Christmas brings toeach and everyone, the one thing weall need to remember is that it wasGod's love that gave us a reason tocelebrate this season. It's not aboutthe gifts we buy each other but it'sabout the gift of love that God gaveto us all and that was Jesus Christour Lord and Savior. In case youhaven't extended an invitation tohim to come and dwell in yourhome, please do so this Christmas.He will bring new light throughoutyour home and your life. God hasgiven us a Gift and that is the Gift ofeternal life through Jesus Christ. Soopen it up with Love, Joy andPeace. Your life will never be thesame when you accept this Gift(Jesus Christ). Before I close thisletter, I want to let you know that ifI don't get a gift from you this year,that's alright too. I have more thanenough, Christ in my life first andforemost, a wonderful husbandwhose name is Alvin, that loves me,a beautiful family, Madra, Nakeya,Jonique and A. J. Moody Jr. and sixgrandchildren, a living Mom andDad, a wonderful work atmospherewith a great boss and awesome co-workers and my health and strength.I live in a wonderful little towncalled McLain, Mississippi whereall is calm, so what more could youask for. So once again, have a safejourney and I wish you well. Havea Merry Christmas everyone and aProsperous New Year!!!
