Dear Mai,
We've been upping our Christmas game every year. This year we have already done a ton of Christmas stuff and have a lot in the works. Today you woke up to find your Elf on the shelf on your table.
Mai: "Daddy, Daddy! Look what showed up!"
Daddy: "Wow! That's cool, he must of came in last night"
Mai: "I know he is just a decoration."
Daddy: "What do you mean? He's your elf that shows up every year."
Mai: "Yeah but he's not real. He's just a decoration. He came from a box."
Daddy: "What? He's from the north pole isn't he?"
Mai: "Nope."
Daddy: "But doesn't Santa live in the North Pole?"
Mai: "Yes"
Daddy: "And the elves live with Santa right?"
Mai: "Yes. But this one is just a decoration. I know a lot about the North Pole Dada."
Daddy: "Maybe he's like Pinocchio. He's a doll but he becomes a real elf at night when we're sleeping in bed."
Mai: "Well that's a little creepy."
You're too funny and smart my little Christmas Elf.
Love,
Daddy
