Christmas Eve at the Jacobs Household

    by: Alistair Author IconMail Icon
Written By fkao

It hit you like a freight train: It was Christmas Eve! How had the holidays snuck up on you so quickly?
You'd done some shopping of course, but you were grateful that Mari usually did most of the work of getting gifts for your daughters. Shopping for gifts for your unaffected friends and family was a logistical nightmare, and not to mention dangerous, for someone your size. But somehow, your eternally forgetful wife was always on top of holidays, a fact that you were ever grateful for.

There was no need to go to work today since the gym was closed. You and Mari always gave your employees a fairly generous amount of time off for major holidays. So what was a tiny man to do with his day?
It was quite hard to be helpful around the house at this size, but maybe Mari needed some help wrapping presents? You could do that, even if it took a while.

You could always check in on your kids and see what they were up to. They were probably getting ready for the holiday in some way or another.

You also remembered that Jenna normally did volunteer work on Christmas Eve. Maybe you could call her up and see if she could use a hand?

Or maybe you'd just take this rate opportunity to relax, and wait until things got busy later in the day?

What does your day end up entailing?

1. Mari forgot to get a gift for someone, so she needs you to fill in as the gift until she can buy a replacement. She molds you into something without telling the recipient and orders the real version online.

2. Riley and Juli are making gingerbread cookies, and Juli thinks it'd be fun to decorate you like a cookie, though you end up getting baked along with all the real cookies.

3. You go volunteer with Jenna, who has the FTTF doing charity work today. But being a tiny distributing clothes and toys is a dangerous position to be in.

4. You're hosting the extended family for a Christmas party tonight, leaving lots of opportunities for shenanigans.

5. Writer's choice
