Dear Santa,
My name is George O'Malley. My family calls me Georgie. I told them I am a big boy now, but they never listen. I think the name Georgie is for little girls. One day I will get really angry if they keep calling me Georgie.
Anyway, my teachers say I am a good boy. I am quiet, obedient, and always do my homework carefully. They say it will be better if I cry less. They say big boys do not cry all the time. What they do not know is that kids at my school are mean. They like to push me to the wall. Sometimes I bite my lips, so that I won't cry. Sometimes it really hurts, so I can't stop crying.
Anyway, this year I want to get a puppy. It is for someone in my class. So, there is this girl in my class. Her name is Molly. Her hair is soft. It smells like flower and shines under the sun. She also cries a lot. I want to be her friend.
Actually, I want to be more than a friend. I want to make her smile. So I ask her, what do you like? She says she wants a puppy. She lives in a big big house with her grandma. I think she will be less lonely if she has a puppy. She promised she will love it very much.
My brothers will make fun of me if I ask for a puppy for Molly. I hope you can help me Santa. You can send it to her house. I know I will love it very much if she comes to thank me, but it is fine if she does not know it is me. When I see her smiling face, I will also be very happy.
Thank you, Santa. I hope it is not too late to write to you on Christmas Eve. My parents say I am slow. Next year I will not wait until the 24th.
George O'Malley
