"Ah...Christmas. I look forward to this time every year." Missy smiled as she walked out to collect the mail. "Oh...something from Santa." she said opening. "Dear Missy, how are you? I am just fine." she read. "So far so good." she said before reading on. "And one more thing I'm...retiring?!" she said before fainting.
"Ugh...what?" she said waking up in bed. "What? Why am I..."
"You passed out on the lawn after learning of Santa's retirement." Josh said.

"I gotta say, I'm surprised it hit you harder than me." He said as Missy sat up in bed.

"Well...he's been at this for so long...I never thought I'd see the day." Missy said.

"So what are you going to do? I mean right now it's easy to keep hidden from the kids, but what about Christmas as a whole?"

"You're right. Josh, get the kids ready for the day. I'm going to grab Minda and we're going to the North Pole." Missy said.
"And that is why you're here with me." Missy said with Minda as they stood outside Santa's village.

"So he's retiring? Guess the thought of him being eternal is a bit much..." Minda said. "But are you sure there's no way to change his mind?" Minda asked as they walked across the village.

"Trust me. When he sets his mind to something, he's set. But maybe we can convince him to hold off." Missy said as she knocked on the door of the workshop.

"I hope so." Minda said, shivering a bit. The door soon opened as Mrs. Claus stood there. "Missy, Minda. I take it you got Santa's letter?"

"Yes. May we come in?" Missy asked as they were let in.

"So where is Santa?" Minda asked. "Upstairs napping." Mrs. Claus said.

"We were hoping to talk him out of retiring if its all possible." Missy said.

"She tried too, huh?" Missy asked. "Can I at least ask what brought this one?" she asked as they were brought cookies and milk.

"Yes, though why not wait until he wakes up?" She asked, gesturing to two chairs. "With Christmas so close I think maybe we should speak with him as soon as possible." Minda said, hesitant to try the cookies. She'd already had trouble with snacking on the ones she made with her kids.

"I agree if not for us, at least for the kids." Missy said.
