Dear Santa,

I’ve been a good boy all year.

The reason I’m writing is to let you know we moved after my dad died. We’re in Montana now. Me and my sister like it here. There’s bugs all over and rabbits and snakes. My mom is scared of the snakes.

That’s why I need a cowboy outfit for Christmas, like the kind Zach “Lightning” Lucas wears. If I had one, I could rope some rabbits and shoot the snakes so my mom wouldn’t be scared.

I know about money and how there’s not much around, so if a cowboy outfit is too expensive, maybe you could send a real cowboy instead. Then my mom wouldn’t be scared of nothing.

Thanks,

Andy Collins

P.S. My sister wants one of those princess crowns with jewels on it.
