Buddy the Elf Arrives

 Something unusual happened at our house.  One morning a mysterious present appeared under our Christmas tree.  I haven't even begun Christmas shopping so I knew it couldn't be from me.  Eric swore it wasn't from him either.  We read the tag and it said it was a gift from Santa Clause and we were to open it immediately.
 The girls were very compliant and didn't hesitate to open the surprise present.
 Inside was a book and an Elf.  We were instructed to name our Elf.  (Which was harder than one might think.)  Eventually, we all said a name, put those names in a hat, and drew out the name "Buddy." 
 The girls are excited and a little apprehensive about an elf watching them.  Let the tradition begin!!!
