St. Patty's Day

Tessie summoned the luck of the Irish this year with this portrait of a leprechaun in a field of shamrocks, with his pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.  

She was hoping a leprechaun might come visit us this year.  Tess found the Lucky Charms I'd bought for St. Patty's Day breakfast.  I warned her if we left them out, a leprechaun might want to taste its favorite snack.  (Tess claims it's also her favorite snack.  "Mom, the picture ones taste SOOO good!")

She snuck downstairs early this morning and found that something had left a huge mess.  She woke me up upset because she thought there was no cereal left for her to eat.  She figured:  "Either the box knocked down by itself and opened by magic, or it was a LEPRECHAUN!"

The green milk in the fridge confirmed our suspicion.  Luckily, the leprechaun left enough Lucky Charms for our breakfast.

Just a few reminders of what makes us so lucky: 

Lucky ducks!
