Dear Santa,

I wrote you a week ago, didn't you get it?

I've managed to keep myself busy - don't sweat it.

My awesome new list is now ten pages long.

Start training your reindeer - they'll need to be strong.

And how many N's are in "venomous snake"?

I drew one in case I misspelled it.

Love, Jake
