I Want Him Out!!!

Sophie informed me this morning, after I reminded her about him when she blindly smacked Noah on the head, that Charlie the Elf must go immediately (see post from a couple days ago). Apparently, she's sick and tired of this silly little elf watching her every move and wants to know why he insists on living with us. I tried to sit her down and read the story again to explain exactly why he is here with us, but she was not having it. She didn't want to hear the story, didn't want to make peace with Charlie, and was adamant that his stay was short-lived. Evidently, this may be a clear example of overkill on Mommy's part....and it's not even December yet.

Hilarious. I love that the elf is welcome as long as she is being good- but he must turn a blind eye when she is misbehaving! Just tell Sophie if she wants to do something bad, turn the elf around so he cannot SEE her.

Sounds like a cute book but I'm with Sophie. I don't know if I'd want a little elf staring at me all the time. Then how is she supposed to do things she shouldn't be doing.

This is nothing more than an indicator of how smart Sophie really is. I mean, we can't stand people looking over our shoulders, so why should she?
