APPLICATION FOR BACK-UP REINDEER POSITION
Dear Hiring Manager at North Pole,
I am inquiring about possible part-time work as back-up reindeer for Santa’s A-team of sleigh pullers. After today’s face plant on a toy as I attempted to pull myself up, I believe I am uniquely qualified to do this job.
I look forward to hearing from you. Please find resume attached.

oh noes! what happened to the nose?!
Ouch.. That must have been quite a hard hit. I spot two other red marks on her forehead and between her eyebrows. Sayang Ruby!
she’s got the “ru” part of rudolph’s name already. i’m sure santa will give her the job.
oh poor thing! Lucas has had so many bumps and bruises since he started cruising..I am still not taking these bumps well even after so many times!
Sigh. It was so painful to watch her cry after she fell on the toy and scraped her face on the way down. She fell on her face again TODAY! She is determined to move around herself, but still not very stable yet.
Hey Dot! We are now living in Finland and we had just returned from visiting Santa at his home in Lapland. It’s expected to snow tomorrow in Helsinki/Espoo so our home will hopefully look like yours. The reindeers actually trot along most of the time… your little girl may be able to catch up : )
hi all who have kiddies who bump themselves up to no end. I highly recommend ARNICA – a natural pain relief homeopathic medicine – that has worked wonders on my accident-prone one year old! major bumps and bruises disappear after a few rubs with the cream.
dear Rubes, when you come to singapore, you shall get one from me :-p
