Someone came to visit us but didn't stay for long
We set a trap and didn't look back
For how could we go wrong
We set a trap and didn't look back
For how could we go wrong
He got away from us again
But startled as he ran
He left his treasure under the bin

Cute little side note: The kids were so sure that they'd caught the leprechaun that it took about fifteen minutes for them to gain the courage to check under the green bin to see if he was there. They thought they could see his red beard sticking out. When I walked in the door one child was hiding in the hallway niche and the other under the kitchen table, both giggling in anticipation. They would peek out and then run for cover again. When they realized I wasn't going to lift the bin my sweet three year old decided that he'd brave it out. (Wish I had that picture. His face was priceless.) Isn't it so fun to have kids?

Your kids are growing up sooo fast. Wow, they look so much bigger to me. I love your St.Patrick's Day idea. How cute!
I remember doing something like that when I was a kinder teacher. We used little gingerbread man cookies and looked for them all over the school. When we "caught" them,they weren't moving. One of the kids asked me so I told him they don't come to life when we're around. He put the cookie on the floor and then put his finger to his mouth in a "sh" motion. It was the cutest thing!
Kids are great!They definitely make life more exciting :).Miss ya'll lots!
