This time of year I am always reminded of a time when my son was five years old, and he came home from school excited to tell me about Sinterklaas Day. One of his classmates’ mom was from the Netherlands, and she had shared with his kindergarten that if you put carrots in your shoes for Sinter Klaas’ horse, he would come and leave presents. He picked out his favorite sneakers, put them by the fireplace and put carrots in them, convinced that Sinter Klaas would visit.
