One day there was a boy named Robert. Robert loved a super hero called Captain Astro. The liked him so much he would watch the I.U. show every day, and he has a Captain Astro suit. But Robert didn't have the helmet.

Christmas was coming up and Robert only wanted the helmet for Christmas.

But when Christmas came he didn't get the helmet. Robert was so sad he cried all day. But when he saw his new Pokemon movie, he was a little better.

When the holiday was finished and school started everybody had to bring in a toy they got for Christmas. Everybody bought in their Captain Astro helmets except for Robert, the only thing he bought in was a dingaling.

When Robert grew up he had one kid and a wife.

Robert and his wife loved to give stuff to a charity that sends stuff to children all over America for Christmas and other holidays.

Christmas was coming and Robert's son Jason thought that he could help a homeless person so he bought someone homeless to the house. Robert said, "All right, you can stay here until Christmas eve''.

When it was Christmas eve the homeless person said, "Robert I'm Santa Claus and I'm sorry for not getting you that Captain Astro helmet, the stores were sold out and my elves couldn't make it so I just wanted to say sorry.'' Robert was surprised and when the homeless person left the house Robert said, "How did he know that?'' Christmas day came and there was a big present for Robert. He opened it and it was a Captain Astro helmet. Jason said, "That's a collectors item now.'' Robert turned on the lights in the helmet and asked his wife, "Did you get this?'' She said, "No.'' "Jason, did you get this?'' Jason said, "no''. Robert says, "It must be from Santa.'' So for the rest of Roberts's life he believed in Santa Claus, and miracles.
