Noelle

I'm Noelle! Santa says that I have a very special job to do. Santa and the elves make toys for the children around the world and spread joy at Christmas time! But Santa says that there are lots of grownups that are sad and need to be happy too. That's why this year Santa decided to do something about it. If it works, we can start to bring happiness to more grownups every year! Yay! My friends Holly, Ivy, Candy, Ginger and me are the first of our kind. We've been working all year to get ready and I can't wait to meet the man I'll be helping. Santa says he has had a bad year. He had a wife and a house and a car and a job and money, but now he doesn't have anything! What an adventure! It sounds like he will have lots of free time to spend with me. I hope he likes me. Santa is pretty good at matching the right presents with children. But he's never done it with grownups before, so we are all a little nervous. He says he's used more magic than usual to make us extra special. The elves have been working really hard too. They are always trying to make us perfect! But I worry sometimes because they are always arguing. "Bigger. Softer. Firmer. Deeper. Longer. Wetter. Younger. No, not that young! Hotter." I am used to the cold of the North Pole so I don't want to be too hot! I don't have a birthday, but the elves say that if I did I would be nineteen years old, because that's what my user likes and I'm made especially for him. Santa says my user likes looking at pictures of girls like me! There are a lot of toy testers at the North Pole, so they really checked us thoroughly! Sometimes there was a line up of elves waiting for their turns to test us until Santa gave them other jobs to do. When we get tested by the elves we know they approve when they give us "wet snow". It's not really snow I don't think, but they sure are happy when we pass a test. I think one of the most important things is being moisture resistant because they get white snow everywhere! They even added a self-lubrication button last week which I enjoy having, but I feel a bit naughty using it. I wonder if I should be pushing it so much? Sometimes late at night after most of the other elves have left, Bonky comes in to see if I can take being "handled" or "roughed up a bit". These are the toughest tests, but I know how important it is for toys to be sturdy and reliable. Bonky works very hard when he is testing. Very hard and long. It's almost Christmas and today, the elves showed me my new home! They call it a snow globe. There is a cozy little chalet and a little snowy hill. There is a cute little Christmas tree and a big red and white pole in the middle, just like the real North Pole! The elves say it is for dancing around. I always hear the elves warn eachother not to lick the North Pole because, "remember what happened to Rippy," but they tell me I should definitely lick my pole. I think they are teasing me. There is a tiny little hatch I have to crawl through. It seems too small but I fit just fine. I remember when Big Loggy tested me and said I seemed too small, but he fit inside me too. He WAS awfully big. The snow globe seems much bigger on the inside. The elves are watching me from outside as I reach the pole. I do a little dance and they are pleased. I really want them to be happy so I risk a little lick and they cheer wildly. Mmm! It tastes just the best candy cane. I can't resist grabbing it and taking a big long lick and sucking the sticky bits off my fingers. Uh oh. Now the elves are staring at me with their jaws open. I hope I didn't do anything wrong. The chalet is amazing! There is a cozy fireplace and a kitchen with cookies already in the oven! In the bedroom there is a big bed and the closet is full of new clothes. There are lots of Christmas sweaters but they are all very tight and I can't pull any of them below my belly button. Tomorrow I will get to ride in the sleigh with all the other presents. I am so excited to love and take care of my user and his friends! I hope her loves me.
