What a sweet tradition to carry on for the little ones. I have never heard of what it was until now and I find it so delightful. You receiving the restored stool as your gift brought tears to my eyes. How very special and such a fond memory to hold for a lifetime. Happy New Year to you and yours.
How are you, dear friend @sunscape, the tradition of the Three Wise Men is very significant in our country, and is shared with our descendants year after year.
My celebrations as a child were very special, and we really enjoyed the gifts we received. The stool was very special, since for Don Arebalo it was a bench that he used every day to sit on in front of his house, and he was kind enough to give it to me as a gift. Until now we have kept it, it is in my mother's house, for being 47 years old it is very well preserved.
Thank you very much for this pleasant visit, and the enormous support you always give me
Happy new year, may this 2024 come to you, full of happy days, health and prosperity
