My mom bought us the book Elf on the Shelf last year. Such a cute little story. What the story is about is this little elf that watches over the house or kids all day and then at night with his special magic he flies to the north pole to visit with Santa and let him know how the children were then he flies back home and hides in a new spot everyday. Well this year Stef is the first one usually to find him. He has been in the bathroom, in the plant and various other place (I thanked my mom profusely for this task of finding a new hiding spot everyday). One day a few days ago Stef was talking to Fred (the elf's name) and I looked over and she said to me:"mom don't watch me I need to pray with Fred" she loves to talk with him and pray with him cause she knows that he leaves every night to talk to Santa. She has been fun this year with the whole Christmas thing. It has been sweet to watch her talk with him and find him.
