Dear Santa:

I have been very good this year.  I have chased squirrels, but I haven’t caught one and if I did I would have let it go…promise!

Counter surfing has improved.  It’s down to a minimum…just one time last week cuz it was peanut butter and I wanted to help Mom and clean the spoon.

No potty in the house ever…unless you count puking that one time when my tummy was sick. But that’s the other end so it probably won’t count.

Oh…and I switched my backyard digging spot to the corner that no one notices…and that only happened cuz that sprinkler head double dared me!

I had nothing to do with the dead bird on the back deck.  That was the raccoon.

I’ve learned to freeze when Mom yells, “Muddy Paws!”  That makes her very happy and she says, “Good Girl!” (Please make a note of that.)

I’ve only teased my sister a few hundred times…which is really an improvement over last year.

I tug on my walks only when the geese make me.

If I want a treat, I don’t whine anymore. I took your lead.  Looking adorable works much better. Look at all the cookies you get!

I learned that the new washing machine is not a monster even though it’s big and loud. I’ve made peace with it.

I am sorry for stretching and gouging the dry wall with my toenails.  Really, I am!

So I think you will agree that I’ve been very good this year…or at least that I’ve improved.  Please consider all the toys I’m dreaming about.  Please pick anyone you’d like…or two…or three…or four…

Love,

Sydney
