Happy St. Nicholas Day!
My daughters woke up this a.m. and first thing they did after getting dressed for school, was check their wooden shoes by the front door! Of course they don't believe that St. Nicholas came in during the night....but...we keep the tradition based on the legend that I described in my post about the St. Nicholas book we read together. Courtney was at the youth center all evening, decorating it with Christmas decorations for her weekly life::group meeting so she missed out on reading the book. Claire enjoyed listening to the story for the 4th time and she then took a turn reading from our poetry book about St. Nick. Of course, instead of having fruit and cookies for an after school snack, they will dive into their chocolate coins! A fun tradition.....with more to come.......
