Well I supose it did all start with that silly tree. Just a little doo dad that a friendly elf had in mind to cheer up the cold winters day. It was so beautiful, I do say. Sitting there with sparkeling lights with blankets of snow laying all about it. Oh yes I do say it really was magical. All us elves thought it was so pretty and wonderful we gathered around it and sang songs through the day. As the night fell we stood and enjoyed the lights shining all around us with twinkles. That would be when He came up.
hung high and bright
So there we stood, face to face with this strange looking man. He was wearing all red, with white trim. Smiling he aproached us and with a Ho Ho Ho he said "well hello there my new little friends, Kris Kringle is my name." 
with a twinkle of his eye and a little wink. His nose and cheeks seemed to be bright red along with his cheery suit. "Well hello there Kris, my name is Seg" I replied with a laugh. I just could not help it, something about this man made me happy. I introduced him to all my elf friends and explained how we were just a small group of many many elves. How we were going to have to leave our happy wooded home soon because a human town was being built very close by. As we sat and talked the night away Kris and I got to talking about the little boy who was born. Kris started a little story that had all of us elves captured in joy. "You see my friends" He began, "I had heard a boy was to be born, and I wished so much to know who he was and why he was so special. I walked from my little home at the north pole 
all the way to Bethleham to see if it were true. I came to this little stable and peeked in. Inside there was a woman and a man. The woman had already started giving birth. As I stood there, an Angel flew above me and said 'welcome Kris'
Well I stood there with my mouth open amazed. Then another one flew above me saying 'I am so glad you are here Kris' 
Well you know I fell flat on my bum and stared at them. The first angel laughed and said 'Oh Kris, it is so important that you are here.' I blinked and finally said 'but why? how did you know I would be here?' She smiled and with a flutter of her wings and a blast of her trumpet she said softly 'look inside Kris, you will understand'. I leaned forward and saw inside a woman wrapping a small child in cloth. Tears came to my eyes my friends, tears of joy. As I gazed three men walked up behind me. They entered the stable and knelt down. Oh I knew who they were. They were the wise men. Here they were, the smartest, the most respected, and the most famous of men. They who now knelt before this new born baby as if he were their King. Now that I think on it my little friends, I also was kneeling there in the snow before this small child. Then these men did the most beautiful thing. They gave this little child gifts.. I thought what a wonderful thing. All children should be given gifts to know they are special. We sat in silence for the rest of the night. 
I looked to the angel and said 'I think I know why I was to be here' She smiled at me and said 'yes Kris, now is your task. It is up to you my dear Kris Kringle, to go on and in your own way find a way to spread the word so this day is never forgotten. With your task, you shall live a very long time to remind all' Then the angel flew high in the sky and disapeared. Now my friends" as he ended his tale " I am on my quest." We all cheered and clapped for the wonderful story, then from our little group was the voice of Joy Elf that rang so clear in the still of the night. "Kris, who was the little boy?" We all fell silent as Kris looked upon us and with a tear in His eye and a smile to his lips, he replied "Why my little friend, that boy was named Jesus, He is the son of God." Oh how silent it was as we looked to one another. Our thoughts consuming us as we knew these words to be true. Finally Kris spoke breaking the silence, "He is the Christ Child Jesus, shall we never forget His name." All the elves repeated the name softly to themselves. Then with a giggle Joy sprang to her feet. "Then shall we always call this day Christmas!" We all cheered and Kris laughed with a "Ho Ho Ho, yes Christmas it shall be!" We all started singing and dancing, even Kris took a guitar out of his sack and started to play 
We sang songs and danced until day light, 
as sparkles of snow fell to the ground around us.
there was even one snowman who was partially in the sun and had a small problem of melting 
As I looked up into his big green eyes I said "Santa, I give you my sock, a symbol of the elven people that I devote myself to you and your task for as long as my feet will hold me." Santa took the sock from me and with a smile he said "I want all to remember this gift my new little friend has offered. We shall hang stockings on each fireplace of every home, so that I remember all the kindness's of the elven people." Then a snowman spoke up "We the men of snow shall remind people to be ready for your comming Santa. We will call to the children and the young at heart as our flakes fall from the sky. We will have them build us, and while they do it they will find joy in their hearts and be inspired to celebrate Christmas day as we have now." As we rejoyced in our new found tasks, Santa invited the elves to come live with him at the north pole. We gladly accepted. We finally would have a home without fear of ever having to move again. Then the funniest thing happened. Out of the woods came a Moose, he sprang out in the silliest of sights. Covered in lights and dressed like Santa He said 
"We wooded creatures want to be a part of this too" As he laughed and toppled over.
