Cookies for Santa. Sophie had a mini-meltdown Christmas morning when she saw the cookies were gone. I guess we should have explained more clearly who the cookies were for.
My brother and his family sent us an "Elf on a Shelf" a week or so ago. I wasn't really sure how to introduce him to the kids and was having some doubts about Madeline believing the story, especially since a couple of weeks ago, some kids in her class told her Santa wasn't real. So, I decided to make it appear that Santa dropped the elf off with the other toys. Madeline bought it, hook-line-and-sinker. The elf has been great. Both girls will actually tattle to it and not to me! I love it! He'll likely return to the North Pole in a day or two, and he will DEFINITELY be returning next year.
What the kids woke up to Christmas morning.

I am so glad the Elf is working out so well! I think he will be a ncie edition to your traditions next year!
