Happy Saint Nicholas Day! I know it's not common in the US, but my family celebrates St. Nicholas day every December 6th. He leaves presents in the children's shoes, and we have a feast. It separates Santa from Christmas a little, but mostly it's just a lot of fun. St. Nicholas is the patron saint of children, so I think it's a nice day to celebrate. In fact, I wish it were a work/school holiday to celebrate children. We don't have one of those in the US. And I really do believe that children are our most valuable (and probably our most underappreciated) resource.
