Because of your article, instead of asking for my kids to write Santa letters, I asked them to make a list of things they wanted to give.
Adele was very resistant, (probably, in part, I told her I had a job for her) and refused to do it. So I changed it to “fun activity” for Elaine. I was talking to Elaine privately about it and Seth could not wait to bust in to hear what this “fun activity” was all about. It wasn’t long before Adele was now completely caught up in the “fun activity”, looking through craft ideas on the Internet.
