In my part of the country, we grew up celebrating May 1 as "May Day". We wrapped ribbons around "Maypoles" and made cute little "May Baskets" with treats inside them. Then you went to your friends' houses, you would leave the basket on the step, knock on the door and then run away. If you left a basket for a boy and he caught you, he got to kiss you... I always ran extra slow for my cute neighbor boy but he never caught me...
May 1 is now my Sydney's birthday. I think I will make some little baskets for her friends at daycare tomorrow...she already has a boyfriend to chase her...
to chase her...
