Why angels? And why on top of Christmas trees?

You haven’t heard from me for a few days because frankly,
I’m taking some well-deserved time off. I’ll send out an
e-mail later on this week, and maybe one or two early next
week, but really, I’m in relaxation mode.

Here’s an interesting story about how angels came to adorn
the tops of Christmas trees. I promise you’ve never heard
this one.

Santa was off to a bad start one Christmas.

When four of his elves got sick, the trainee elves did not
produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began
feeling some pre-Christmas pressure.

Then, out of the blue, Mrs. Claus told Santa her Mother was
coming to visit, which stressed Santa out even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of
them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the
fence and were out, Heaven knows where.

Then when he began loading the sleigh, one of the
floorboards cracked, and the toy bag fell to the ground and
all the toys were scattered.

So, frustrated and all worked up, Santa went in the house
for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went
to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drank all the
cider and hidden all the liquor.

In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug,
and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over
the kitchen floor. Then, when he went to get the broom, it
turns out the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of
the broom.

But just then the doorbell rang. Frustrated and ready to
tear someone a new one, Santa marched towards the door and
yanked it open.

There stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.

The angel said very cheerfully, “Merry Christmas, Santa.
Isn’t this a lovely day? I have a beautiful Christmas 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.

Have a great holiday and enjoy your family.

Now go relax, Craig Garber

P.S. I’ve got some cool new stuff coming up early next year,
so look forward to it.
