Date: 2012-12-11 04:38 am (UTC)Dear Santa,
There's a blue eyed boy. And I know that he's my exact opposite. And I know that we'd fight. And I know that he'd be hard to love. But I want him anyways.
I want him with his flaws and imperfections. I want him when he's being a lone wolf, and when he's being the boss. I want him after a good case when he's happy, and after a bad case when he can't express his anguish.
I want him in good and in bad. I know that I could be good for him. I know that we could be good for each other.
Please Santa, please can I have him for Christmas.
~Nell

Dear Santa,
I stopped believing in you when I was five. But my partner said we all have to write these stupid letters and see if we get what we want. I think it's a waste of time, but he's my partner. It's not like I can tell him no. So I'm stuck with this cheery looking paper, writing to you. I'd stop, but he's starting at me from his desk, and I know if I don't do this, he'll take my chocolate stash.
I want him. I'd prefer naked, with a strategically placed bow that I could unwrap, but I'd take him anyway I could. Except I can't tell him that. I can't be the one to make that move, to take that step. I need to know that he won't walk away.
Jack ruined Christmas for me, and Marty may be the only one I've ever met that can heal the hole that Jack left. Except I'm too give him the chance.
So maybe you could give me him for Christmas?
~Kensi
********
Dear Santa,
She hates this. I can tell. But she's writing. So that's something, right? She wouldn't even try to do this if she didn't feel something for me.
I wouldn't complain if you just want to give me her for Christmas. There's really nothing else that I need. She's my whole world. She's the one I fall asleep thinking about and the one I dream about, and the one I wish I was waking up beside.
I know I need to make the first step. I need strength to do it. I'm so scared that she won't feel the way I do. And if she doesn't then what do I do? Go back to LAPD? Because they just love me there.
Come on, Santa, help a guy out, can you just help me get her this Christmas?
~Deeks
********
Dear Santa,
I just want my wife back. Safe and sound, and where she belongs. Bring her home for Christmas, please. She's the only thing that the kids and I really want. I've seen their list, I know that she's at the top of their list. I know that she needs to come back for our family to survive.
She's my world. She's the only one that knows everything and still loves me. She's the only thing that matters. Keep her safe. Bring her home to me and the kids. Remind her that we love her, and that we can't wait to see her again.
~Sam
********
Dear Santa,
I stopped believing in you when you didn't bring me a family when I was seven. That was all I ever wanted, and you didn't bring me one. Years later I finally built my own.
But now there's something else I want. Or someone else. A tiny redhead that changes my world the first day I met her. She makes me smile. She lets me be myself. I don't have to lie to her, she knows it all. And she's beautiful, even if she doesn't know it. She's everything I never knew that I needed.
There are a million reasons that I'm all wrong for her. But it doesn't change how I feel. All I want for Christmas, is Nell.

********
Dear Santa,
A surf board would be nice. Or that new laptop, you know which one I mean. Or whatever cool, high tech stuff you have up there at the North Pole.
Anything to distract me from the fact that my best friend has fallen for someone that isn't me. I knew it would never work between us, but that doesn't make it hurt any less. Maybe if I had someone else to talk to about it, it wouldn't be as bad. Maybe you could bring me a new best friend.
Except I don't want that. I want her. And I want her to be happy. And I want her to be happy with me. And I know it isn't realistic, but it's Christmas and isn't it the time for miracles?
Maybe if I can't have her, you can bring me someone special?
~Eric
********
Dear Santa,
I'm doing pretty well with their Christmas wishes. I know what they all need. And who they all want. They don't realize that chosen them all based on who and what they needed in their lives. I knew Mr. Deeks was who could heal Miss Blye's heart. And I've always know that Miss Jones could be the one that Mr. Callen has always been looking for.
I know that Sam is worried about his wife. And I'm trying to keep my eyes on her. If I can bring her home for him on Christmas, I will move heaven and earth to do so.
As for Mr. Beale, well I guess maybe I could use a hand there. I haven't been able to find someone for him that could steal his heart. I never intended that he fall for Miss Jones, but I understand his attraction. I have a couple of ideas, but no one that's perfect. So if you have a suggestion, I'm open.
As for myself, there's nothing that I need as long as my kids are happy and loved. And they are. They are more loved than they will ever know.

Date: 2012-12-11 03:01 pm (UTC)Dear Santa Claus:
My best friend Franklin told me you arent real. I dont beleive him. He said his parents told him that, but I think they are teesing him. He will see when he wakes up on Christmas and has presents from you. But I beleive in you and I wanted to let you know what I want this year. I really want to be a doctor when I get big, so I would like a doctor bag with a stethaskop and a hammer thing and other stuff. I also want a chemistry set so I can practice making peeple feel better. Please bring me these Santa. I promise I have been good and I will leave you out some milk and cookies and some hay for your raindeer.
Thank you Santa.

Dear Santa Claus:
This seems silly to write to you when I'm 20 years old, but I remember how it made me feel when I was a kid. It felt like talking to a friend. I'm in college now and I'm on my way to becoming a doctor. I don't need anything material this year, but I do need some help with a few things. I'm having trouble with the math class. Please send me understanding for this class so I don't fail.
I also need a little help with girls. I met one I really like, but I'm too shy to talk to her. Please send me some courage this year so I can ask her out.
One last thing. Some of my classmates tell me I'm a geek. They make fun of me, but I don't think that's a bad thing - being a geek. Please send me some self-confidence so I don't let them hurt me with their jokes.
Thank you Santa.

Dear Santa Claus:
Hi. It's me again. It's been a while since I wrote to you. I'm a little nervous. Ok, I'm a lot nervous. I finally found the right girl and we're getting married. Her name is Breena Slater. I love her so much and I want to make her happy. So this year, I wanted to ask you to send me the wisdom I need to know how to make Breena happy.
I'm also having a little trouble fitting in with her family. They are a little eccentric. Please send me the patience and calmness I need to deal with her relatives, especially her father. I don't want to say or do the wrong thing and get them upset with me. Breena means the world to me and I just want to make her happy.
Thank you Santa

Date: 2012-12-14 09:26 am (UTC)Hi… I hope you and Mrs. Clause are well. Mom said you two are both working really hard to get ready for Christmas. You know who is also working really hard? My daddy. He's away now because he's a Marine. I'm really proud of him… mommy is too. But I'd really love it if he was home for Christmas. It's just not the same without him here. He always put the star on the top of the tree. We can't do it without him! So, please Santa, if you bring me one thing this year can it please be my daddy. Please, please, please bring him home for Christmas!
Thank you very much!
Love,
Kelly Gibbs (age 6)
Dear Santa,
It's been a long time since I have written to you, not since I was a child… But Kelly was so excited to write her letter that I couldn't stop myself from picking up a crayon and joining her. I don't have to look at my daughter's letter to know what she is asking for. And I truly wish it was something I could give her this Christmas. But Gibbs, my husband, is off fighting for his, our, country, and Christmas is not the only holiday he is going to miss. I love that man with all my heart but it would be nice to have him home right about now. But since we cannot have that, please Santa, send all my love to him. Make sure he knows that Kelly and I love him and miss him and want him to come home safe!
Thanks Santa,
Shannon
Dear Santa,
Jeeze this is stupid. I didn't put the tree up this year and I threw out all the lights Shannon kept in the basement. She and Kelly both loved the way the lights twinkled. In one of her last letters to me, Shannon told me she and Kelly wrote to you last Christmas… I don't know why but I thought I would do it this year. My wife and daughter are gone and a letter to you isn't going to bring them back. I would give everything to get them back… So, please Nick, just help me get through this holiday season without putting a bullet in my brain. That's the only thing I can ask for these days, the strength to keep going. Because I know they wouldn't want me to be like this.

Date: 2012-12-18 03:38 am (UTC)I know you’re really busy, but I just want to ask you something. How come you’ve ignored all my letters? I’ve been really good. I’ve obeyed all my foster parents, even if some of them were bad. All I really want is for you to send me a real family who wants me. Why haven’t you sent them to me? It’s not my fault that my mom died and my dad is gone. Please, Santa. I won’t ask for anything else if you just send me a family.
If you don’t send me a family, then just send me someone who will tell me my real name. I’m tired of kids picking on me because I don’t have a real name, just a letter. I hope to hear from you real soon.
Love, G Callen, age 7
Dear Santa:
You’re a fake. You’re a phony. I believed in you and you never showed up. You’re just like my many foster parents. They always give me away; they always forget about me. And so have you, it seems. I still don’t have a family and I still don’t know my real name.
That’s okay, though. I’ll find out on my own. I don’t need some fat man who sits around eating cookies and milk all year to tell me who I am. I’ve come to realize that I’ve got to look out for me and screw anyone else. If no one’s going to help me, I’ll just help myself.
Disdainfully Yours, G Callen (age 17)
Dear Santa:
Hey, Santa. I know it’s been a while since I wrote you. I feel pretty silly for doing this but I guess it’s a good a time as any. They say that patience is a virtue, and I believe it’s true. I’ve never been one to wait around for something but in this case, what I’ve got this Christmas was worth the wait.
I’ve finally got a family. I’m well into my 30s now but I’ve got people that have adopted me. I’ve got a big brother, two little sisters and two little brothers. And I have Hetty, who has been like a mother to me all these years, even when I didn’t know her. Because of her, I have people I can truly count on.
As for the name thing, well…I’ve gotten attached to Callen. I’ll settle for that, at least for now.
Thanks, Santa.
Love, G Callen

Date: 2012-12-18 07:48 pm (UTC)I have been very good this year, I promise. I didn’t even complain when Sarah kept waking me up in the middle of the night with her crying. This year for Christmas I would like a Nintendo system with games, games for my new computer that mom and dad got me for my birthday, a couple of new books (especially some Hardy Boys mysteries), and a chemistry set (my parents said it’s too dangerous because I’m only eight, but I think they’re just being silly). Also, Santa, I would like for dad to not move around so much. I know he has to because of his job, but I want to stay here. I have friends and I hate having to leave them behind. If you can do that I’ll give up any other presents. I just want to stay in one place for now on.
Thank you,
Timothy McGee (age 8)
Dear Santa,
Okay, I know you’re not real, but Penny suggested I try writing it out to you just for the heck of it. I really need a miracle right now, so I’m willing to try anything. My dad is insisting that I follow in his footsteps and join the Navy. But that’s not what I want! I get sea sick and I’d probably be more of a hindrance in the Navy than a help. I got a scholarship to MIT and since I’m only 16 I can’t join the Navy yet anyway, but I know I’ll only be able to keep my dad at bay for so long. I want to work with computers and investigate crimes. I don’t know what agency I’ll join, but I know that I’d be better off there than being in the Navy. Dad thinks that’s a waste of time. All of the McGee men have joined the Navy and I’m supposed to keep up the tradition. I guess Sarah doesn’t have to since she’s a girl. She’s lucky.
I don’t know what I expect to happen, but maybe someone up there will lend me a hand.
Here’s hoping,
Timothy McGee (age 16)
Dear Santa,
Well…this is awkward. I haven’t actually written to you in a while. Even now I’m only doing it because Abby is making all of us write one. You don’t want to mess with Abby, especially when it comes to Christmas. Anyway…what do I want? I guess a nicer apartment would be nice. I’ll never turn down new electronics and computer games. I always like books. Maybe some new clothes…maybe a girlfriend. You know, one who won’t turn out to be a thief or killer. I haven’t had too much luck in that department. And more money would never hurt either. I guess that about covers it. Obviously I don’t expect to see this under my Christmas tree (it would never fit anyway), but maybe somewhere along the way. Anyway, thanks for listening…
That was awkward,
Timothy McGee (age…well, let’s not go there)
P.S. Can you take away Tony’s superglue?

Date: 2012-12-19 03:16 am (UTC)I mostly just ignore Christmas. Sorry, but after waking up alone the Christmas that Jack disappeared, I just started avoiding it. This year I’m going to spend the day with my mom, which is weird and wonderful, but what I really want for Christmas is love. This year I would like to not wake up alone on Christmas morning and remember that terrible day. I would like to wake up in someone’s arms and not have to wonder why I always end up alone. I can’t believe that I am saying this, but all I want for Christmas is Deeks.
Thanks,
Kensi
Dear Santa,
I’ve been extra good this year! For Christmas, I would like the nerve to tell the girl I love that I want more than what we have. We are partners and friends, but I want more and I think she might too. Pretending to be married to her was the best time in my life. Getting to casually touch her and stare for no reason was addicting, and now I have to fight the urge everyday. Having someone there for me is a luxury in this life and I know that she knows that too. I just want her walls to come down and to be able to tell her I love her without her running away. I’d also like a swank apartment and a sports car (I’ll even leave the make and model up to you).
Deeks
Dear Santa,
I used to write you every year wishing for a family. You didn’t ever come through for me, but I’m going to try one more time. Only, this time I’m looking for another kind of family. I still want answers, but I have Hetty, Sam and his family, Kensi, Deeks, and Eric. What I’m looking for is someone I can start a family with. I was hoping to be able to convince Nell that I would be a decent man to date. I have never dated anyone like her and she is amazing. She is so smart and beautiful and I want to convince her I can be half as good as she is. The first time I saw her I saw my future in her eyes and I was scared shitless (sorry). But as we get to know each other I can’t imagine my life without her in it. So for Christmas I would like a chance with Nell.
