77/365

St. Patricks Day was filled with all sorts of fun adventures.  
Lenny the Leprechaun stopped by and left a few "surprises"

It started with waking up to a green table cloth on the kitchen table, green milk, green apple jacks and a note from our tricky leprechaun.

                                                                                                     


           
                                                          Ha. Ha. Ha. Can’t Catch Me!            
                           I’m as Tricky as Can be!                                                  

  My name is Lenny the Leprechaun and I’m here today
Watch for my tricks I am going to play!
I might leave treats. I might leave messes,
But whatever I do,  don’t wear pink dresses!!
Green is the color of choice today.
If I don’t see it, pinches will come your way!
I can see you! Even though you may not see me
I’m super sneaky, but cute as can be!
Being a leprechaun is so much fun,

But if you think you can catch me, I’m going to run. run.  run!!!
                                          Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!

He also left a note on the front door for the kids when they got home from school.
My pot of gold you will never find,
But a little leprechaun dust I’ve left behind.
See the green sparkles, they bring you good luck
Maybe next year you will capture me and I’ll be stuck
But for now, I leave you with one neat treat
In the fridge you will find something sweet
I hear you like pistachios so this treat will do just fine
It’s green just like me….. It’s my favorite kind!!
