Six-year-old girl Helga Hiltunen from Finland wrote a letter to God before Christmas. She asked for 100 marks in the letter. At that time, only the President of the Republic could open letters with an incorrect address in Finland. Thus, the letter addressed to "God" was read by Urho Kaleva Kekonen, who successfully ruled the country from 1958 to 1982.

Kekonen decided to satisfy this request, but he thought that 50 marks would be enough for her. He ordered a car to be brought to him and decided to bring her the money in person as well as the answer "from God". Shortly afterwards, Helga's new letter arrived at the president's office.

She wrote that the whole street was staring at Mr. President's car that stopped near her house.

In the continuation of the letter, the girl asked "God" never to send money through the president again, because he stole exactly half of it!

Hahahaha sweet heart :-) Girls are a miracle! As much as male children leave us speechless with their mischief, so many female children enchant us with their deeds.

The story is instructive, the children are innocent and uncorrupted. Honest in her words.
