Mrs. Claus

I have a feeling that sweet, chunky Mrs. Claus doesn't get nearly the amount of credit she deserves.

We hear all about how Old St. Nick travels the world in a single night, bringing toys to all the good boys and girls.

The elves are the onese who get the credit for making the toys and probably even feeding the reindeer.

What do they say Mrs. Claus does?

She's the smiling face that greets Kris when he gets home after his long night of traveling hte world. She probably has a mug of cocoa and some warm slippers.

Except...I think she probably does so much more to prepare for Christmas than any of the tales tell us.

She's the sanity behind the insanity of preparing for this season.

She makes sure Santa eats so he stays jolly. She probably maintains the naughty and nice list because it's what we moms do and I have a feeling that Mrs. Claus has to act as the dorm mother to all those elves running around the place.

For all we know, she shops for the supplies that are used to build the toys. She probably keeps the workshops clean and still manages to greet her husband with a smile each evening.

Oh yes, Mrs. Claus doesn't get nearly enough credit. I'm just saying.
