Dad in tears after taking sneaky look at son's letter to Father Christmas

A dad was left in tears when he opened his son's letter to Father Christmas and saw his simple request for 2023.

The delivery driver decided to take a sneaky look at his little boy's message to the Big Man ahead of December 25 to ensure he wouldn't be disappointed when he opened his presents come Christmas morning.

But instead of asking for toys or expensive gifts, the child simply asked for his dad to finish work on time so they could spend time together. The dad shared a picture of the note, which was handwritten in pencil, on Reddit and it quickly went viral. Alongside the picture he wrote: "I'm a UPS driver and I cried when I opened up our son's letter to Santa."
