Christmas is weird....
What other time of the year do you sit in
front of
a dead tree in your living room eating sweets
and
snacks out of your socks?
The Birth of a
Tradition
One particular Christmas season a long time ago,
Santa was getting ready for his annual trip, but
there
were problems everywhere. Four of his elves
got sick,
and the trainee elves did not produce
the toys as fast
as the regular ones so Santa
was beginning to feel the
pressure of being
behind schedule.
Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her mum 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
booze, 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
kitchen floor. He went to get the broom
and found that
mice had eaten the straw end of
the broom. Just then the
doorbell rang, and irritable Santa trudged to the door.
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?"
Thus began the tradition of the little angel on top
of the Christmas tree.
