Tis the season to meet Jolly




Jolly our Elf is back! Last year Santa sent us "The Elf on the Self'." On December 1st of last year Santa door bell ditched us a gift. When we opened it there was a book and an elf. The book told us how the elf was there to help Santa. He would watch us and listen to our stories. He knows how we behave at school, in the car, at the park, any where we go. Then when we go to sleep at night, he flies home to the North Pole and tells Santa all about our day, if we were good or bad. Then he filies back before we wake up and hides. Then we have to go around the house to find him. There are a couple of rules, he cant talk to us because that is Santas law. The other rule is that we cant touch him because he might loose his magic. Sometimes he gets into a little mischief. Like yesterday he was hanging from the ceiling fan. It is a good thing it is not hot outside. He might go flying when we turn the fan on (like Dad wanted to do). We all try to do our best to be very good. Except for Dad! He always tries to touch Jolly. Then he says "...all Jolly does is sit around on the self all day. He is so LAZY."

We love Jolly and are glad he will come back every Christmas forever and ever.
