We're not Irish, but in our house, St. Patrick's Day is a major holiday. And it is all because of that sneaky leprechaun. This year we built a trap that we were sure would catch him for once and for all
We lured him in with food (you know, Lucky Charms)
and the kids wrote him notes (one of the first signs that we have let this get completely out of hand...they make requests of the leprechaun like he is Santa) which they taped down low on their doors so he would be sure to see it.
And they picked out their green clothes and laid them out for the morning.
This morning we woke up late because that naughty leprechaun had set their clocks back two hours and this is what we found...
We all hurried downstairs to see what he had left us. The kids looked in the fridge and found their lunches packed ("This is the first time I haven't had to make my own lunch!!")
And a rainbow breakfast.
Luckily, we got ready for school in time for a St. Patty's Day photo shoot. It went how all of our photo shoots go, completely ridiculous...
But they were laughing and I was laughing and I can't help but look at this picture and think that today is my lucky day!
