Emily and Tiger

Emily received a special visit on Thanksgiving and has been enjoying this special visitor since. After reading a special book "The Elf on the Shelf", we asked Santa to send a special Elf to Emily. When our Magical Elf came from the North Pole, our first mission was to name him. Emily thought very carefully for several days and finally named him Tiger (for her favorite LSU Tigers). Tiger is very special in that he can't talk but he listens well. Every night, while Emily is sleeping, he flies back to the North Pole to report to Santa if Emily has been naughty or nice and lets Santa know what Emily would like for Christmas. Emily's elf is different from others that visit our friends because nobody can touch Tiger or he will lose his magic. Tiger likes to hide in a new spot every morning when he returns so that he can play hide and seek with Emily. He has been found in the refrigerator, bathroom, Christmas tree, and many other silly places. On occassion, he has even brought special North Pole treats when Emily is especially good! He will return to the North Pole tonight but will be back next Thanksgiving. We took some pictures so we can remember him even when he is gone for a year.
