One particular Christmas, a long time ago, Santa was getting ready for his

annual trip. Alas, there were problems everywhere.

Four of his elves got sick, and the trainee elves just weren't producing

the toys as fast as the regular ones. Poor Santa was beginning to feel the

pressure of being behind schedule.

Then Mrs. Claus announced 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.

Furthermore, when he began to load the sleigh, one of the boards cracked,

and the toy bag fell to the ground scattering the toys everywhere.

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 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?"

And thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas

tree.
