Pool group briefly watched four little girls dressed as elves help POTUS and FLOTUS put a gift for Children's National Medical Center -- the beneficiary of this Christmas in Washington concert -- under a Christmas tree. POTUS announced, "It's Santa's little helpers!" as the girls approached. The four girls were Avery Johns, age 4, Anna Matsui, 6, Abigail Lothian, 4, and Reagan Lungren, 7. POTUS subsequently added "elf" to each of the girls' name -- as in Avery Elf and Anna Elf. The girls were all smiles for the press, but Anna maybe wasn't as impressed. She told POTUS, "I've never seen you before!" POTUS responded with laugh, "I've never seen you before." http://thepage.time.com/pool-reports-obama-at-christmas-in-washington-event/ Sugarland's Kristian Bush, left, Mary J Blige, President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama and George Lopez (not shown) get together to sing during Christmas in Washington.U.S. President Barack Obama (L) and first lady Michelle Obama greet comedian George Lopez... because no benefit would be complete without some cheesey group singing...
