He also had an optimistic wish list for Santa.
Dear Santa,

I had to downgrade his expectations a bit. "Santa doesn't do dangerous gifts." So the electric saw was out of the question. A telescope and a microscope are both big gifts, and there are a lot of kids so I didn't think Santa could do that. He was a little disappointed, but seemed to understand.
On Christmas day, Matthew got a microscope. He has been in little boy heaven all day long. But that is for another post...

Awesome! I remember when I got my first microscope. Admittedly, the allure wears off when you use one for a job, but I still remember that first little one very fondly. ;)
