Santa's Helper

Scene:  the living room.  A has found a green mesh sack, has stuffed it with various play groceries, and is prancing around the living room in green sweats and a green shirt.

J:  "What are you doing?"

A:  "I'm Santa's helper."

J:  "Oh.  How are you helping Santa?"

A:  "I'm taking toys to all the children.  But not weapons."  (Thinks a little)  "The older kids get the weapons."


I didn't tell him that Christmas isn't for nine more months.
