He is here! Well, he was anyway. Saint Nicholas arrived last Friday and I had a ringside seat to see him arrive at the school just across from my house. Not on his horse Ozosnel (Osoquick in English, his horse Amerigo retired a few years ago), but on a tractor he drove himself.
There were plenty of children waiting for him and his aide Pete to arrive and load them up with presents, sweets and ginger nuts. Perhaps a word of warning here and there, but on the whole a good thing. About an hour later I heard the tractor start up and they left again, on their way to the next school.

Saint Nick on a tiny tractor, whodathunkit.
ReplyDeleteI love that. We celebrated St. Nick when I was growing up and also with my children. I hope to start James on it too. I need to talk to Adam and Gabby about that.
