Eddie the Elf has Arrived

Eddie has entered the building ....

Well this morning started off as any other day. As we arrived at the shop I kissed Lauren goodbye and waved as she walked to school. I unlocked the shop and entered a very cold shop! At first I couldn't see anything out of the ordinary so I placed my bag down and took off my coat. As I sat down to check my emails I could feel someone watching me ....hmm how strange I thought, and carried on checking through the offers from Amazon and other countless emails I received overnight. 

After a little while I decided to arrange some items on the shelf and to my surprise there sat Eddie! This cheeky little fellow with his bright sparkling eyes was smiling back at me!  Well where did he come from and how did he get here? It was a real mystery until I saw the letter next to him explaining it all so clearly! You see it's quite simple having had a fairly difficult year for various reasons I had hidden away a bit so had dropped off the north pole radar- and I guess Santa felt he needed to check I was firstly Okay and secondly being a good girl! But let me tell you a little secret Eddie's arrival has sure brought a big smile to face and I feel the Christmas season has begun! To prove it I needle felted a Christmas Pudding :) 

Now I have heard through the grapevine that sometimes Santa's Elves are known to be a little wild from time to time so you will have to watch this space!
