Sleigh Repair Before Christmas Flight

Santa lifted the reins and gave a gentle starting call. The reindeer stepped

forward onto the icy launch path. Milo held the map steady with both tiny paws.

The sleigh rolled smoothly and the bells chimed softly. The sky looked clear and ready for their

flight. The reindeer lept, and the sleigh rose slightly. Then it dipped with

a strange, heavy wobble. Santa steadied the seat and frowned at the runners.

Milo felt the sacks shift and pressed against them. Something was wrong with the sleigh's

balance. Santa guided the sleigh back onto the snow safely. The reindeer snorted,

then calmed with patient breaths. Milo hopped down and checked the straps underneath.
