Ever since Michael could remember he

wanted a brother or a sister.

He would ask his mother and father

every Christmas,

"Could I ask Santa for a brother or a 

sister?"

When Christmas morning would come,

Michael knew that Santa had brought him 

something he had secretly wished for.

What he found under the tree had not been 

in the letter he had mailed to the North Pole.

His wish list was short and only had two 

words on it.....

Brother                      

Sister

Instead Michael would get all the toys he 

could ever want or play with.   One year he 

rushed downstairs on Christmas morning to 

find a brand new shiny bike.

He would forget for a while what he had 

wished for in the first place.   He was always 

happy with what Santa gave him.   He would 

ride his new bike as soon as the snow 

melted.

Michael learned to keep himself busy and 

found things to do using his big 

imagination.   He would talk to an imaginary 

friend and pretend it was a brother one day 

and then switch to talking to a sister the 

next.   He was not sure which one he 

wanted more.   He liked sports and thought 

a brother would be nice to kick the ball 

back to him.

Michael's mother and father knew that their 

son wanted a brother or a sister very badly.  

They would take turns spending time with 

Michael and playing games with him so that 

he was never alone.   They spoiled their son 

to make up for the fact that they could not 

have any more children and they knew that 

Michaels' wish, as well as their own, would 

never come true.

Michael's father played with him when he 

could, but he did not seem to have a lot of 

time to spare.  

His father was a Doctor and was not home 

very much. 

Michael did not mind though, because he 

knew his father was helping people get better.  

His mother was home with him a lot.   He 

loved his mother, but she wasn't very good at 

sports.

Michael would spend time with his mom.  

He enjoyed baking cookies with her.   They 

would have tea parties.   Michael would 

imagine that he was having tea with a 

sister, when his mother wasn't around.   He 

could spend hours imagining what having a 

sister would be like.
