I am 9

I am now 9. I always wondered what my dad and mom would get me for my birthday. Turns out, my dad got me a Chinese chessboard when he went to Beijing. Here are photos of the King, Queen and Bishop. He also got me a helicopter which I may tell you about in another post.

The Truth

I just found out that Santa Claus is not real. I found this very surprising because I really thought he was.
I was kind of sad when I found this out so I read a book and books always cheer me up.

St. Nicholas was real. Here is a link to some information about St. Nicholas.
