"We wish you a Merry Christmas. Santa can't resist trying out the new accordion before it's placed under the Christmas tree. He and his elf have just begun to unpack the gifts for this lucky family and Santa is sampling the toys. From the look on the elf's face, it is clear that Santa is making a joyful noise to all the lands, (see Psalm 100), but not necessarily in tune with the accordion! Even the baby doll looks amused, and the teddy bear seems to be saying "Amen!' There are more holly leaves and berries on this statue than on any of my other Christmas pieces. In keeping with my tradition, Santa has no coin, for the joy we feel at Christmas is priceless."
