All Princess

December 1st, Princess, the Elf, made her reappearance at the Laws house to watch over Carli for Santa.  This year, Princess brought back her book and made us a simple breakfast of chocolate muffins and strawberry Santa hats.   Carli was excited to have her back.

 

 

Over the course of the weeks leading up to Christmas, Carli was careful not to touch her, but came close several times.  Most mornings, Princess sat in very normal places, the mantle, the top of a lamp...but sometimes, she was a little more adventurous:

 

 

 

special paper for Carli to write her letter to Santa

must have gotten hungry?

 

 

One morning, Carli found a letter with magical seeds from Princess.  They told her to plant them and something would grow from the seeds overnight.

 

The next morning, Carli found magical reindeer cookies had grown.

 



She tried to help wrap presents

She made a birthday card for Jesus on Christmas Eve.

When we got home from Grandma and PawPaw's, it was time to get milk and cookies ready for Santa and to tell Princess goodbye until next year.  Carli was finally able to touch  her since Princess would be riding on the sleigh back to the North Pole.  It took a few minutes for Carli to believe she could finally touch her.  Then she hugged her, gave her several kisses and told her she loved her.  She didn't want to leave her to go to bed, but finally did.

 

 

 

Princess, we will miss you at the Laws house!  Hurry back next year!
