Wakey Wakey Kale

I found the golden ticket to waking Kale each morning...Elf on the shelf...He came to our home last year and this year has grace with his presence again. I can't tell you how much "Ted" has helped Kale wake up each morning. While this would normally be a very daunting part of my morning, now I just have to rub Kale's back, and softly whisper "I wonder what Ted has done today?" Up Kale jumps and runs to find him.
A couple of times I had the camera ready when he found "Ted", and it doesn't quite capture the excitement that's there, but it's close!
