The title reads: Happy St. Nikolaus Day People. So if you read me last post {which you totally should & it explains the concept of the day} you would know that it is family tradition to celebrate St. Nikolaus Tag. Today is that day. I promised a photo and so you shall have it. While I was getting ready for work this morning, my five year old daughter shot out of bed and ran to the door and yelled, “Mommy, mommy, he came. He came and brought me candy. I was good.”

St. Nikolaus put candy in her shoes since she was good this year. If she were bad, he would have left her things for me to beat her with. But she is my little angel so I didn’t expect anything less. My favorite tradition and holiday by far out of the year. She loved it and always does. But this was the first year where she got out of bed by herself to come see. Every other year I would have to bring her over to show her. I’m so glad she has gotten excited about it.

So it was a nice morning. I was getting ready for work and she was begging to have her candy. I told her she can now go brag at school to all her friends who came to visit and leave candy in her shoes in the middle of the night. Its tradition to use a red boot or clogs. Her little crocs were the closest thing to clogs and we don’t own any boots since its still very hot out and no need for boots in the winter when it’s 80 degrees outside. Plenty of swimming suits though. just no boots.

So to all my friends out there that celebrate, I hope you had a fantastic and fun-filled morning waking up to goodies in your shoe. Hopefully no one was bad this year!
