Jolly Old St. Nick

Round these parts they celebrate St. Nick's Day. You can try to fight it, but they talk about it at school so the kids come home expecting St. Nick to visit their house and leave a present. St. Nick is NOT Santa Claus. He's someone else. Todd and I are not really sure who, or what or even why for that matter so we just told the kids he was Santa's helper. He comes the night of Dec 5th and the kids wake up Dec 6 with a small gift, candy etc... I have since googled Ol' St. Nick and learned about him but that is really irrelevant since my kids aren't really old enough to understand that Todd and I don't really want to do it- but anyhoo... they awoke the morning of Dec 6 to find that St. Nick had in fact paid them a visit. He left them "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" DVD, some ornaments for their tree, and each a couple books... they were pleased to say the least!
Cole, extremely excited about his DC Superfriends book!
