Soft Opening

Tuesday was the "soft opening" for Santaland. It gives the new elves a chance to practice with real people (not elves pretending to be people) and school groups. Shortcake was positioned in the maze at the photo op. She held coats, purses, and bags while people took pictures, and guided them onwards toward Santa. She also met a child from Sweden and impressed the mom by being able to say "Good Yule."

Then she went home early.

Dear Shortcake,

My daughter is an elf, but not at Macy's. She is has been an elf all her life. She has a penguin friend. I didn't how much training an elf had to receive, did you get a diploma? Graduate of Macy's Elf School? You should have graduated with honors, at least with candy canes and bells. Have you received training on using handsanitizer to prevent H1N1? Be especially nice to those kids with autism. I love you already. ELF's mom
