Ponderings from Theodore-the Early Years

Theodore has always been a thinker--meaning long after I have moved on from a subject, he is still pondering it. Occasionally, we are going to visit some of his questions and observations from his earlier years. Some are serious and others are humorous.

This is one of the things Theodore was trying to figure out about Christmas when he was younger.
  

                                   Elves
                       For almost all eternity
                       Santa's working elves,
                       Are making toys for girls and boys 
                       To put upon their shelves.

                       It strikes me a bit strange,
                       That no one's noticed yet,
                       If Santa never gets paid,
                       How are the elf wages set?
