LOL Gary -----Original Message----- From: DaniaKarloff@xxxxxxx To: showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Fri, 6 Jan 2006 10:16:46 EST Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Happy "Dia de los Reyes" For all the Latin and Hispanic people on the list - today is "Dia de los Reyes" or Three Kings Day. This is the day that Cuban (and other Hispanic children) receive gifts from the Three Kings (the same three kings that came to see Baby Jesus). We do no receive presents from Santa Claus so the three kings load their camels and bring gifts for the good children. Bad kids receive coal pieces <G> When my children were little, since they were born in this country, they were visited by Santa Claus .... but somehow they always seemed to get something from the Three Kings ... Old. old Memories...... <G> Dania ========================================================================= === POST is Copyrighted 2005.
