Nicky celebrated at school. they each took off one shoe during snacktime and placed it in the hallway. He thought it was funny to eat snack with only one shoe. He was also very excited to celebrate "Holland" on Saturday, even though we don't participate in this tradition.
How interesting Karin, that school would celebrate St Nicolass Day. i guess it is the Dutch heritage of New York (New Amsterdam)? Did I count 9 shoes? Did someone double dip? Did I miscount?
when we were kids we would put little bowls on the table, I guess Mom didn't want our shoes on the table, and she also didn't wantto put food in them...thanks MoM... we would get a nickel and some nuts, I don't remember ookies, ...thanks for the stories...
St Nicolaas Day. He brought us all a pair of flannel pajamas and a kinderegg! Very nice. There are alot of big feet in this house, wouldn't you say?
