That Naughty Little Elf

It is crazy to think that we are already on day 17 of Holidailies. Today we have the writing prompt of:

Elf on a Shelf: Adorable childhood tradition or creepy stalker?

I have seen Elf on a Shelf for the past several years all over the internet. Our 'adopted daughter' has one for her kiddos and they have a lot of fun with it. I think it would have been a fun thing to do with my boys when they were growing up. They would have found it to be a hoot. He sure can get into a lot of mischief. I think parents need to find him doing some good as well as the naughty little things. But I am not bothered by it at all. And I don't find it creepy either.
