Nicholas was a priest, an abbot, and a bishop of Myra. Once, he helped a poor family by dropping bags of gold coins in a window, landing in a stocking hung up to dry. Thus, the story of Santa Claus was born. He was known for his holiness, zeal, and astonishing miracles–even raising people from the dead.
Great picture! Your boys are heart-breakers. ;) I meant to get around sooner to wish you a Happy St. Nicholas Day...so, belated wishes!
