Santa was asked what he looks for in an elf. With the important task of being Santa’s ambassadors, mediocre elves wash out of the Elf Corps quickly. First of all, they must love Christmas and be thrilled to be in the elf role. Second, they are helpful and more than a little mischievous...the sparkle in the eye is a giveaway that you have a great elf. Third, they must be able to look at the world through a child’s eyes, with a good imagination and quick smile. The most important trait of a magnificent elf is a loving heart. I am fortunate to have the cream of the crop of elves...
