All in Green

Last Year's Leprechaun Visit

What a fun day it was! Our girls awoke to find that a leprechaun had visited while they slept. Green footprints trailed through the kitchen, claiming our cabinet doors, chairs, and floor. And how they delighted in finding everything awry... chairs were misplaced or tipped over, plates were overturned and sporting four-leaf clover cookies. Glasses were upside-down, and a small place had been set just for Mr. Leprechaun in our high chair. And as would be expected, his food was green, and he was quite brazen to have had a small glass of green sprinkles to drink! And while I do not offer to claim any dealings with this display, I was quite surprised to see that a certain Daddy Leprechaun had contributed to the fun while I slept! How fun it was to delight in the whimsy of the day. We even enjoyed a trip to the bookstore to begin our St. Patrick's Day book collection. Here's what we found:

How thankful I am for the smiling faces and joyful hearts that made this day so precious!
