It was Christmas Eve and all the elves were excited and one was so excited he tripped in the toy shop and broke three toys. An elf went to Santa to tell him the bad news.. that he would have to delay his delivery for one hour so new toys could be made. This stressed santa greatly. The toys eventually complete, santa slung his huge sack up onto the sleigh but as the sleigh was old a wooden support broke and the sack came tumbling off. Santa was now even more stressed and ordered the elves to get the sleigh fixed as soon as possible. He went indoors and shouted "I'm delayed Mrs Claus, make me a coffee please" but she told him they had none so he asked for a cup of tea. "We've run out of Coffee, Tea and Milk" said Mrs Claus at which santas stress level reached an all time high.
There was a loud knock on the door and santa, very angrily answered it. Outside was an angel carrying a Christmas tree.... "Where would you like your Christmas tree"? asked the angel.

So the tradition of the angel at the top of the Christmas tree started!!!!
