839- THE ANGEL ON THE TREE

WHY DO WE PUT AN ANGEL ON TOP OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE
Here is the true story of how this beloved tradition came to be. The story here....
The Angel On The Christmas Tree
Santa was not in a very good frame of mind - in fact he was very depressed. That morning after breakfast, Mrs Santa had told him that her Mother was coming over to stay 'for a few days' and he knew that would be for several weeks, and as Christmas was approaching her visit was the last thing that he wanted. The Elves had not been showing up and had gone on strike for more pay. The replacement elves Santa had put in were much slower and the number of toys that had been made was way down. So Santa went to visit his Reindeer and found that two of them were pregnant and another two had kicked down the fence and had disappeared into the forest. He was by now even more depressed.
What I need is a drink he thought, but upon going indoors he found that the elves had hidden his Whisky and there was nothing left to drink in his liquor cabinet. Deciding upon a coffee he went into the kitchen but managed to drop the Jar of Coffee all over the floor. Now he really was pissed off!
At that moment there was a knock at the front door. Upon opening it, Santa was confronted by a beautiful angel holding a lovely Christmas Tree. "Good Morning, Santa" she called "Isn't it a really lovely day. I have bought you this beautiful tree, isn't it lovely? Where would you like me to stick it?" History was made that day, right then and there. And that is why by tradition we have a Angel sitting on top of our Christmas Trees.
Merry Christmas y'all
