Christmas is a magical time of the year. How often have you lain in bed, visions of sugar plums dancing through your head? Maybe youâve began to gently drift into a dream when, suddenly, you realize . . . you didnât move the elf!
That darn elf. Making you get out of bed when youâre all snuggled up after a long day of gift-wrapping. But you know that if you donât move it, the kids will begin to unravel the Christmas secrets youâve worked so hard to preserve over the years! Before you know it, theyâll think Santa isnât real and theyâll be all grown up. Fine, you say to yourself, Iâll get up and move the freakinâ elf. However, as time goes on, your kids start to notice the elfâs moving to the same spots over and over, doing the same old things. It starts to become less believable.
