We don't. [ But then again, the demons where he comes from don't have many happy things like holidays, so he probably shouldn't seem quite so pleased about telling her that. He still isn't quite sure about this whole holiday thing, to be quite honest, but maybe he'll be convinced once Kuwabara and Kurama start preparing for it. ]
