The Littlest Employee

Christmas was coming, oh what a treat! Tati's office was buzzing, so festive and sweet. Little Eliza, just five years old, Came to play, but proved to be gold!

While Tati prepared gifts for his team so dear, Eliza played 'round the office without fear. But this clever girl, with a twinkle in her eye, Was secretly helping, oh my, oh my!

When bonus time came, and treat bags were shared, Eliza got called to the boss's lair. The "boss" (her Tati) had a surprise in store, A bonus and goodies, just like the others, and more!

Eliza beamed proudly, feeling so grand, A real team member, isn't that brand? But Tati wondered, as fathers often do, "Does she know about money? What will she do?"

So off they went on a shopping spree, To teach about spending, just Tati and she. Through toy shops and candy stores they did roam, But Eliza's choices made Tati's jaw drop to the ground!

Two books she picked, with pages to turn, And socks hand-knitted, so cozy and warm. At the sugar house, just two candies she chose, And a small bottle of water to wash it all down.

For Mummy's birthday, a secret surprise, Socks just like hers, hidden from prying eyes. "I'm tired now, Tati," Eliza did say, "Let's head back home, if that's okay?"

Tati stood amazed, his lesson unneeded, For Eliza's wisdom had far exceeded His expectations of a girl so small, She'd taught him about spending, once and for all!

So remember, dear readers, big or little you be, Wisdom comes in all sizes, as you can see. Eliza proved that day, with choices so nice, That sometimes it's children who give the best advice!

The Girl Who Gave Santa a Gift

Eliza was a jolly little lass, With a birthday near Christmas, oh what a blast! At six years old, so happy and bright, Her imagination soared to dizzying height.

While others wrote letters to Santa with care, Listing toys and treats they hoped he'd share, Eliza was busy with her own creations, Too caught up in her imaginative sensations.

"Write to Santa!" they all would say, But Eliza just smiled and continued to play. Until one day, while out for lunch in town, She picked up a pen and jotted this down:

Dear Santa,

I hope your elves are having a ball,
Making toys and treats for children all!
Lots of love to your reindeer so fleet,
And to you, dear Santa, here's a treat:

Ho Ho Ho!
(I can do it too, you know!)

P.S. You need a break, that's true,
So here's a wish just for you!

Lots of Love,
Eliza

Her parents read the note with surprise, Seeing the world through Eliza's eyes. For in her funny and loving way, She'd thought of others on this special day.

You see, Eliza had a heart so pure, Finding joy in making others' joy endure. She didn't ask for dolls or games, But wished for Santa's happiness all the same.

With courage and kindness, she'd start, To make the world better, playing her part. For Eliza knew, at just age six, That love and laughter were the best of tricks.

So remember, dear readers, as you grow, Like Eliza, let your kindness show. For the greatest gift you can impart, Is the love and joy within your heart.
