HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!! The girls attempted to try that tricky little leprechaun that comes around on St. Patrick's Day recking the house, looking for his gold. They made, on their own, a lego contraption where he would have to climb up the ladder and then walk across the towel to get the pot of gold... but the towel has a deep hole under it and he would fall in and be trapped till they could let him out in the morning.
Well - that didn't work! Those stinkin' little green men can jump!!
Although he did fall for the gold and took the wrappers of gold coins. HA!
He then left a mess for the girls and me to pick up! Starting in their room - he ripped open a bag of stuffed animals and tossed them around the room. But one of their snoring must have startled him cause it looks like he didn't finish.
He then led a trail out to the front room with their shoes (sorry for the blurriness - it was still dark in the morning as they woke me up to show me all his shenanigans!)
He continued his mess in the dining room - stacking our easter egg tins and then placed the easter eggs throughout the house - including the dogs' feeding bowls.
Oh and their playroom - he looked like he had a time playing in there - between setting up a tea party on top of their toy box and all the stuffed animals each reading their own books...
To him creating a block city... wonder if that reminds him of his home?
He finished by changing the stools around in our front room and using Delilah's physical therapy ball as a topper.
After cleaning up, the girls enjoyed a green eggs and ham breakfast before church.
During breakfast, they learned the true meaning of St. Patrick's Day - who he was and what the shamrock symbolized. Still not sure where the leprechauns fit in - but they have fun with the little green man. And even if Mikayla truly knows that Mommy is the leprechaun, she enjoyed it just as much as her other sisters. Now that Daddy is done with the cabbage for dinner tonight... off we go to enjoy this wonderful March weather.
