When I was young, I used to believe that St. Nicholas existed and really came on the 5th December during the night. I wanted to drink water but I was afraid of getting out of my bed. I finally stayed in my bed, I was still thirsty. The next day I said that to my mother and she laughed. Next she told me the truth. Thanks mom...
