Santa is an Airdale!

A little off subject, our granddaughter has yet to reveal what she would like for Christmas.  So, the other night, while she was eating I told her that an elf had visited me that day.  He was on patrol because he had lost the key to the mailbox where boys and girls had sent Santa a letter.  The elf requested that we older folks try to get the young ones to tell us so we could send a text to Santa in time for him to make his deliveries.  She stared for a few seconds and then asked if she was on the naughty list.  I told her because Santa was requesting her wants that she was on the good list.  Then she told me that her mother had already texted Santa.  I lost that battle after all the struggle to create such an elaborate story.  Children are often smarter than we.
