The Elf on the Shelf



It's a Christmas miracle! A very special elf, now named Harbert, showed up at our house tonight! "The Elf on the Shelf" is a darling book and stuffed elf that is sent to the homes of children by Santa to report to "the Boss" if they have been good or bad. (Man, the woman who invented this was a GENIUS!) I put the box on the front porch and asked Brykn to go turn the xmas lights on. He was so excited when he found the box. We read the story, took the elf out of the box and put him just where we thought he would be safe. Harbert (Brykn's name for his new elf friend) now flies back to the North Pole to report directly to Santa. Then, in the morning, he's found at a new place somewhere in our house. Awe, its so funny how naugty turns to nice so fast!

The video shows Brykn telling about his new elf. This Christmas should be fantastic. Stay tuned for more Harbert the elf stories!
