The Night Before Christmas
I’m mot sure what prompts her to do this.
何故こんなことするのかしら?
Saying good-bye to the Elf on A Shelf. See you next December!
棚の上の小人さんにお別れ。来年の12月にまた会おうね!
The Elf disappears and quietly hides until next December.
そして来年の12月までひっそりと隠れて過ごす小人さん。
There is something about seeing Christmas tree on the night of Christmas Eve. There are people in the world who spend December 24 with different emotions (regardless of faith). There are people who lost their loved ones, welcomed new members, lost love, found love, are crying, are laughing, are worried, or are comforted. I am thankful for what I have and I do not take it granted. Yes, we miss our families who live far away. Yes, we miss our old friends who are all over the globe. Yet, there is nothing that makes me feel more at peace than having my husband and kids besides me and knowing that our families are doing well during this holiday season.
クリスマスの夜、クリスマスライトに照らされたツリーを見るのは感慨深いです。12月25日は、人によって様々な気持ちで過ごしていることと思います。大切な人を亡くした人もいれば、新しい生命を迎えた人、愛を失った人、愛を見つけた人、涙している人、笑っている人、心に不安を抱えている人、平穏がある人。幸せにクリスマスを迎えられた事を有り難く思います。もちろん、遠くに居る家族や、世界中に居る友人と一緒に祝えない寂しさはあります。夫と子供の側に居られ、家族が健康である事を知っている事程、平穏を感じさせてくれるものは無いと感じます。
May the Christmas magic bring peace and joy to you and yours!
クリスマスの魔法が、皆さまへ平穏と喜びをもたらしてくれますように。

Beautiful post 🙂 You want to hear something funny? You know how I commented that the Elf on the Shelf was a cute idea? Well, it turns out that my sister sent me one from the US as an early Christmas present a few days after I wrote that comment! Totally out of the blue, and without me even mentioning it to her. So we were able to start that tradition in our family this year. (Although E was afraid of it and kept on telling me 「ないないして。」haha.)
Hope you had a merry Christmas!

Yay! You’ve joined our elf journey! I have to warn you that it’s kind of tiring for parents trying to make sure it moves every night and figuring out where to put it! I can see how she can get scare of the elfie (I call him that). He’s kind of creepy in some way. He’s adorable, though! Thanks for visiting!!
