1973 MV's Santa Claus letter

An incomplete letter to Santa Claus offers a couple clues as to Mary's 1973 Christmas wishes and several questions:  Was this a first draft and Santa "destroyed" the final copy?  Santa arrived before the note was finished?  Hopefully MV received more than 1½ gifts and Santa intuited the other two items.  Transcription follows.

Dear Santa Claus,
Hi!  There are four things
I would like very much. They
are a small calculator, a vinyl
covered Bean P [presumably Bean
Bag chair.  --MV 12/73]
