St. Patrick's Day

In the days leading up to St. Patrick's day, Jack was referring to it as Jack Lindstedt Day. His middle name is Patrick, but somehow he just turned it into his own day. But he was surprised to find out that it wasn't all about him and I had a great time playing little leprechaun tricks all day. When he woke up, there were green balloons, garland, gold candy and GOLD (pennies). There was also "leprechaun" dust with footprints in it. He was a little overwhelmed at first. The first thing that Jack likes in the morning is his milk, but the milk was extra special. He had to drink it out of a real glass and when I poured it in, it magically turned green! He was AMAZED! This face was a few minutes after I did it - he was still so excited. There were other things, like the toilet water. But he had to have green eggs and then he asked me if the rice at lunch was going to be green too - so of course it was. Over all, it was a really fun day and an exciting new tradition! I can't wait for next year.
