Sparkle The Elf...

The other day when I went to get the mail, Rainee received a package from none other than Santa... and inside was a letter from Santa and a little Elf.... named Sparkle. Santa and Mrs. Claus sent him for Rainee to play with and to be his eyes and ears to make sure Rainee was feeding Champ, helping mommy and being good. Sparkle reports back to Santa & Mrs. Claus every evening during the holiday season... because he needs to know how not only Rainee is doing, but also mommy and daddy. So you can imagine, we've all been on our best behavior for a good report to Santa.

In the letter, Santa also told us a little bit about Sparkle... how he likes to play, but that is favorite game of all is Hide & Seek! Santa told us that during the holiday season, Sparkle may hide in a new place every morning but after Christmas, Sparkle will go to sleep until next year!!! So every morning, since Sparkle has been with us, Rainee gets up to see if Sparkle is where she left him... and of course he isn't... so she goes searching the house to find him! She's been having so much fun with him!!!  Although Sparkle loves to hide, we've come to realize... he always seems to leave something showing... usually it's been his hat!!! It's been very fun to see where Sparkle is each morning... and he's been helping us all stay on Santa's Nice List! I sure am glad Santa sent him to give us some holiday fun!!!
