I have been giving this a lot of thought, and I don't think that I will be asking for anything traditional this year for Christmas.

This year for Christmas I would like a years worth of willpower. Yes, willpower. You can do it, Santa. I've been praying for strength but somehow it's getting lost in translation. I'm practically as strong as my potential boyfriend and something feels a little wrong about it. I don't want to get into it, but I'm just saying - you don't ask your butcher for a dozen roses, right? My prayers have been answered in all fairness. The strength I'm looking for is apparently more of a magic trick. You're notorious for feats of magic. Does my Christmas Wish qualify?

Anyhow, I'm sure you've noticed I have had my share of naughty and nice moments this year. Upon reviewing my scorecard you will see the nice far outweigh the naughty. If you could be so kind, I would appreciate my gift of willpower to be rationed throughout the next 365 days, beginning January 1st. Who needs willpower on New Years Eve anyway?

I will anxiously await your safe arrival, Santa. Should your mouth be parched and your tummy empty as you're passing through, you will find 2% in the fridge and Fifty-50 Oatmeal Cookies in the panty. Help yourself!

Love always,
Allie B
