The adventures of Jingle, our Christmas Elf, Day 10
Wow! I can’t believe it’s already the 10th of December! I am embarrassed to confess I have done absolutely no Christmas shopping at all! yikes! I wonder if we can skip that bit this year? Think anyone would mind??
Anyhow, today Jingle was found sitting on the coffee table with all our nativity scene characters in a semi circle at his feet. He was reading to them from a children’s book called Pajama Elves. This is a super sweet little story about Elves whose job it is to make pajamas for children to receive on Christmas eve. Have a look here for more information about this lovely tradition.
The card asked that I read the story to the children at bedtime tonight and also hinted that they might be getting a magical pair of Christmas eve pyjamas this year.

New pyjamas is something I usually do on Christmas eve anyway, and don’t judge me here, because I like the children to all look co-ordinated and lovely for the Christmas morning photos. Boring old, well used and sometimes hand me down pyjamas are NOT allowed. 🙂 I like to aim for Christmassy colours too but am not always successful. Let’s hope the pyjama elves find something suitable this year as it is their job now 😉
*Before you feel the need to correct my spelling!
For your info: you will notice that I have used US spelling; pajamas and UK spelling; pyjamas. They are the same thing..just different spelling !
