Like the whole Santa thing, mistletoe has never been one of my tradition. I knew the little one would spill the beans about the kiss. But I'm still puzzled why she felt she had to kiss the old college friend. It's good that the husband got over it well.

    Mistletoes not my thing either...but then probably not much is.... As for the husband...I figured it was the season to spread peace and joy so I gave her a pass.

This is a cute story for the Christmas season. Mistletoe can certainly get people in trouble. I'm glad Daddy was forgiving. Note: You have Emma instead of Becky, a few times near the end. Blessings. Carol

    That's what I get when I start to write an outline ahead of time for a story and then decide I don't like the names I used...Senility at its best! Thanks for pointing it out..fixed I think!

Carol,

What a great story. It was too cute the little girl kissed the postal carrier. She was only doing what mommy did. What a smart little girl to catch on so quickly.

Great job my friend

Cecilia

    I'm in one of those holes where I keep trying to climb out, slip back and discover the hole is deeper. I'll survive but that's why I am writing like a mad woman. It keeps my mind focused on the story and not my life. 12 days and counting!

Lol, children can be so.... Lol. I thought there might have been a problem for a moment especially when she asked the postman to kneel down and then kissed him. I must put some on my front door! Lol. Yet another great story. Well done, my friend, you are on a roll!!! :)) xxx Sandra xxx

    I could put some on my front door but even the delivery person just drops it on my porch and hopes I find it. I don't see anyone ever. Thanks for the review and kindness. I am about 60 reviews behind again and I need to read to post another story and then there's the chapter too. I should get a discount...LOL

This is a really cute story. I'm happy Daddy completely understood. It could've gone south really fast. LOL

The doorbell chimed, pulling her from her cheerful dance. Hugging Teddy close, she dashed to the door, her socks skidding as she stopped. She opened the door wide, and a man holding a bouquet of roses greeted her; their red petals were vivid against the newly fallen snow. (I just got chewed out by an editor for using too many verbs ending with 'ing'. You used four in this short paragraph. You might want to correct that. I caught quite a few others.)

    Interesting! That does sound like it could be a rule, but neither Word Editor, Grammarly, or ProWritingAid mentioned it. I'll try to remember another rule! Pretty soon I'll have to have notes plastered all over the desk, telling me what to watch for. LOL

Carol, Carol, Carol. >sigh<
You have a whole raft of these sweet Chrimbo stories and they keep on rolling in and keep making this grumpy old Scrooge smile.
Now stop it, you hear?
You will tarnish my hard-earned reputation.

    Hey, tis the season! I've been a little green like The Grinch of late, so the stories keep my brain focused on the good things. I know you are a big ole teddy bear, Tim, just trying to be like Del....oh, yeah, he's a softie too!
