Eight-year-old's letter to Santa goes viral

A mum has shared her eight-year-old daughter’s heart-warming letter to Santa Claus.

And the spirit of Christmas is very much alive.

Diana Prado described the moment she found the note, written by her eight-year-old daughter Nadia Prado, saying: “When I found it, my heart melted, and I cried”.

The note read:

“Dear Santa Claus,

Since you’ve been giving us presents every year, this year I ask for nothing.

I have toys, a home, family and love.

So this year I want to make you something.

Tell me what you want this year and I’ll make it.

Love Nadia.”

Posting on Facebook to Love What Matters, Diana wrote:

“There are times that we doubt ourselves as parents. There are times that we wonder if we’re doing a good enough job raising good people,”

“There are times that we doubt ourselves as parents,” she continued. “There are times that we wonder if we’re doing a good enough job raising people.”

“She has learned that family is everything and love is more important than gifts under a tree.”

The post was shared almost 4000 times, showing many others were also touched by the letter.

“What a wonderful caring daughter,” one person comments.

“Bless your beautiful daughter and her beautiful soul,” another added.
