LUG'S CHRISTMAS CAROL

A crystal Hummingbird is placed in the Christmas tree of her new home only to discover to her horror that most of the other ornaments are damaged.

 

Her nearest neighbour, an elf named Lug, tells her what happened. 

 

He begins by explaining how, as a boy, Mr. Kelley watched his father hand carve ornaments for the family tree every year. 

 

After many years and many ornaments Mr. Kelley's father passed away. 

 

Wanting to carry on the tradition but unable to carve, Mr. Kelley placed a specially selected ornament on the tree every year.

 

Last year it was an Ostrich Egg music box with a Ballerina inside.

 

Last year Drummer Boy and Ballerina fell in love.

 

Last year was the year of the fire.

 

The year Ballerina sacrificed herself to save the others.
