Patrick.

Our elf on the shelf is named Patrick...per the boys request. I had another name in mind but they pleaded for this name. So Patrick it is! (not Pat :)). Anywho, Henry LOVED reading the book. Until he thought about it. Then there were tears... He said Patrick was not allowed to be in his room and didn't like the thought of him walking around. When he first arrived he didn't like it, which caused P to get upset too. But we've kept moving him around & day 2 Henry said," Patrick isn't real. I know you're moving him around." And then he seemed to calm down about it. Just a little something fun to do and every morning they run out of their rooms to search and find him. Kit was NOT into it at all at first but man, he's really stepped in and made it fun. Almost all of these pics are his idea. A couple others were hiding in the boys' cup/plate cabinet & yesterday he was buckled up and in the truck waiting on us to go to church :)
