mr. elf

We started a fun new tradition this year, mr. elf. He is there to watch over the boys during the day and then he flies back to Santa each night and reports back to him how they have been. Then in the morning when the kids wake up they have to go find where he landed. It was so fun, Jack loved finding Santa every morning and it helped to keep him in line during the day knowing that his elf was watching. Gma & Gpa even got into it and every chance they got they hid the elf in a new spot. So Jack had to go find him multiple times. Jack loved his elf and he was devestated when I told him that on Christmas Eve he wouldn't return until next year. He said, "but its my elf!" He also was very paranoid about people touching the elf- because he loses a little of his magic everytime he is touched! and he didnt want to call him anything other than mr. elf.
