Before we send them on to the North Pole, we’d like to share the wish lists of Chenango County children with you ...

This year, children in Chenango County wrote their letters to Santa Claus, and thanks to a partnership between the North Pole and The Evening Sun, Santa has agreed to let the newspaper publish letters from local children.

As of Monday, Santa had received a bag full from area children and he had responded to all of them. The following are copies of those letters exactly as they were written. Santa said he wants to thank all of the children who wrote to him this year.

Dear Santa,

I have been a good girl this year. I want a camera and a tea set so I can have a tea party. I will leave you chocolate milk and cookies. I will leave celery for the reindeer. I love you.

Juliette

Dear Santa,

I have been a good girl and I would like nail polish and a necklace and a new baby for Christmas. I will leave you cookies and a carrot for the reindeer. I love you.

Dear Santa,

This year I wish to just stay living with my aunts because I really love living with them and in North Carolina it was hard moving back and forth from mom to dad’s. I also wish for joy to come to people all over the world. I hope many people get what they wish for this year.

Have a very Merry Christmas and I thank you and God for keeping my first wish come true (Staying with my family). Thank you so much and I hope you have Happy Holidays. I also thank you and the Lord once again for all you have done for me over the years.

Sincerely,

Taylor W.
