St. Patrick's day once again meant trying to trap that Leprechaun so we could steal his gold. Chase and Sadi set to work making a trap that was sure to catch him this year. What Leprechaun could possibly pass up the Shamrock Saloon that promised free food and drink? It was a well thought out plan.
In the morning our gold was missing, and all he left at the saloon was a note that read: I won't be fallin fer yur trick, signed Lucky.
He once again made me crazy by deciding to stop by the bathroom for a potty break.
Besides the tons of clovers he spread all over our house he also left a little something for each kid. But, they had to decipher whose was whose. There was one for "the wee one", one for "me redheaded friend", and one for the "giant in the wee little room".
Inside was filled with a rainbow and a pot of gold, along with some green surprises to keep them from being pinched.
They were ready for school and there would be no pinchin' of these two!
I decided to for-go the lunchboxes and dressed up a brown paper bag for lunch that day.
I told them they couldn't peek until it was lunchtime. I think the anticipation was just as exciting. Lunch was filled with lots of green, a rainbow, and a leprechaun joke.
Chase and Daddy had baseball practice after school and it lasted almost all night, so it was just me and the girls who had dinner together.
When the boys made it home we all had a little green dessert together.
It was a pretty lucky day even if we didn't catch that little green man...next year for sure!
