Christmas Angel
When four of Santa's elves got sick, and the trainee elves did not produce
the toys as fast as the regular ones, Santa was beginning to feel the
pressure of being behind schedule.
Then, Mrs. Claus told Santa that her Mom was coming to visit. This
Stressed Santa even more.
When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were
About to give birth and two had jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows where.
More stress. Then, when he began to load the sleigh, one of the boards
cracked and the toy bag fell to the ground and scattered the toys.
So frustrated, Santa went into the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot
of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered that the elves had
hidden the liquor and there was nothing to drink. In his frustration, he
accidentally dropped the cider pot and it broke into hundreds of little pieces all over the floor. He went to get the broom and found that the mice had eaten the straw end of the broom.
Just then the doorbell rang and an irritable Santa trudged to answer it.
He opened the door, and there was a little angel with a great big Christmas
tree. The angel said, very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa, isn't it a
lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to
stick it?
And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas
Tree.
