Elf update

After visiting with my sister this afternoon, I have more Elf news to share.  It seems she was chatting with a friend at work and they got to talking about the Elf on the Shelf phenomenon.  The friend said she knew of a family where one Elf was just not enough---after awhile, with three kids, each child needed an Elf, because one Elf just was completely out gunned.   So that's what the parents did.  They made sure each child had their own personal Elf. 
One night, after everyone had gone to bed, the three Elves had a pillow fight in the family's den, with cotton balls.  You know...Elf sized pillows.  When the three kids woke up the next morning and saw the cotton balls strewn all over the den, suddenly the Elves became way more fun.....and a lot more likeable.  And now, occasionally, the Elves get in as much trouble as the kids.  Brilliant.
