Nicholas of Myra tossed bags of gold into the home, either through the chimney or an open window. The stocking custom came many years later when Saint Nicholas was morphed into Santa Claus.
Depends on santa what fruit he want to put in the stocking::)
A noble man lost his wife so he and his three daughters were left with nothing. They had no money. Then one day his daughters just got done washing their clothes and they hung their stockings by the fire place. Then that night St. Nicolas came and put gold in them and the daughters were able to marry because they had money. That's one way to get them out of the house.
There is a story that St Nicholas put in gold coins in stockings that were hung in a house for drying, of a man that was poor. The stockings were for his three daughters, and they woke up with a gold coin in each stocking, and they happily married.
If you have a mantle, hang it there. If not a shelf will do.
Randy Hesse they have two teenage daughters Rachel and Kate! :)
you can either get a stocking from Nina if shes still alive or you just get one when you have a son to get stocking from Nina: in the winter give Nina a ball of yarn (put wool from sheep in yarn maker) once her ap is at least 255 and she will make you a stocking
put a cd by her favorite artist, or a handmade gift (mothers love that). I usually put my main hand-made x-mas cards in the stockings, but that is just me. Find out what she likes (something small, but meaningful) and put it in her stocking.
All mothers who have teenage daughters believe that those daughters are great beauties. As a result, teenage daughters don't put a lot of stock into what their mothers have to say. At different ages, teen girls have various issues with looks and body image. The reasons are many. On the other hand, some girls manage to be balanced and confident and concern themselves with being healthy and happy, rather than focusing on "beauty," which is temporary. Instead of harping on your daughter's great beauty, focus instead on her interests and talents. Those things are far more valuable and will go a long way to building her confidence.
Buy him a bathrobe.
If they are minors, yes. You are the one responsible.
