Where do I send my letter?

I’d like to change Christmas for next year to make it a three-day affair. I would like to be able to spend Christmas Eve with one side of the family, Christmas day for myself, my husband, and two kids, and December 26th for the other side of the family.
It will make Christmas longer but will be less rushed and also less overwhelming for young kids who will completely freak out from being overstimulated by the time it’s all over.
Maybe. Maybe?
To whom should I address my letter? Santa?
(Yes, Christmas was awesome. But yes, my kids are worn out and overwhelmed. And I would like to sleep for the next three days straight.)
I think that sounds perfectly reasonable. You just need two sets of grandparents on side and your family can do what it likes.
