The kids found Buddy the elf taking a marshmallow bath in the bathroom sink this morning. Tonight I gave Gillian a bath. She climbed in the tub and looked around and said “Where are the marshmallows?”

Last night I told Gillian it was bed time. Normally she gets up and runs to her room. Last night she turns to me and says “I not ready!”

Tonight the kids were eating some of the candy that St. Nick left them. We looked over at Gillian and she looked like a chipmunk. Her cheeks were stuffed. Daddy asked her how many chocolates she had in her mouth. She said “I have two!” Meanwhile she starts opening another Hersey kiss!
