My Mom always celebrated St. Nicholas' Day for us, and it has become a very sweet and special holiday for me, and I want to pass it down to Lucy and my family. It falls on December 6, and you can read about it here. Also, this is a link to another special bit of info, which talks about the children in Milwaukee celebrating the day, which must be part of Mom's roots...
Happy St. Nick's Day! Hang out your wish lists, and I hope you get a little treat (to be shared), not a lump of coal in your wooden shoe or stocking or under your bed (where our gifts always show up).
I wonder what St. Nicholas will place under Lucy's cradle...

I'm so touched that this funny little holiday still means something to you. I loved reading about its history, and I'm glad you will be passing the tradition on to Lucy.
I just know it won't be a lump of coal!! Love you! xxoo
