An amazing letter to Santa from a California second-grader is giving people all the feels. Hollister, California, teacher Julie Neff has shared with the world a letter to Santa that was written by one of her students. In her 27 years as a teacher, Neff says she’s never seen a more caring message from a student.
The letter was written by Anthony Cordova Jr, and it’s a master class in what it means to be truly kind and selfless. The letter reads:
Dear Santa,
This year what I want is different. I am not asking for any toys.
All I want is for people that don't have homes. I want all of those people to have one.
And all the people that have a disability I want them to not.
And for there to be world peace.
I wish that there were more kindness in the world.
All I want for myself is for me not to have lung problems, and for no one to starve.
I want for no more world hunger.
I know you can't get me that for Christmas but I believe that you could.
Love, Anthony Cordova Jr
Neff says she won the “teacher lottery” when she got Anthony and that he’s “an amazing human being with a heart as pure as gold.” She also believes the world needs more people like Anthony. This Christmas, we should all try to be more like Anthony and we hope that Santa can bring him what he’s asked for.
