Elf on the Shelf

I kept debating whether I really wanted to start this holiday tradition… seems like it could be kinda fun, but you do hear parents lament all the work involved in coming up with creative ideas and remembering to move it around every night.

I think pandemic guilt got the better of me — trying to add a little more fun back into this unusual holiday season and this was, at least, something we could do from home. And then fear from all the out of stock items this year led me to impulse buy an elf once I saw one available.

So, I officially committed… eek!

That being said, I am changing the rules a bit for our elf. We’re keeping it simple: Ignoring all the naughty stuff, just moving the elf to a new spot, and only doing it for the 12 days of Christmas.

Plus a new goal — get everyone to clean each night before the elf comes, lol.
