Happy St. Patricks Day


HAPPY THANKS PATRICKS DAY!

 

I woke up to Sean saying this to me this morning.  It was so cute.  He was really excited...

So far, for breakfast we've had GREEN pankcakes and GREEN milk.  I tried a bite, just to make sure they tasted ok.  They were fine, so I served them to the kids (of course, I did not eat them).  Sean really liked it!  I read them a book about St. Patrick.  We plan to watch the VTales episode later this afternoon.  We are going to make a SHAMROCK card today that has the following:

 

THE FATHER, THE SON, and THE HOLY SPIRIT

We've read the story about St. Patrick and his mission to win Ireland to Christ.  Thank GOD for him.  Coming from an Irish-Christian background, I believe this is truly a wonderful day!  I am so grateful to pass this beautiful heritage on to my children!  HAPPY THANKS PATRICKS DAY!

 

I have another book to read to them, if they'll sit still long enough.  We spent the morning finding where we live on the map and then finding Ireland and Britain (where St. Patrick was from).  We're all in our GREEN today, even J.  I picked out a GREEN LANTERN (from the comic books, Justice League) for him to wear and sent some GREEN food with him to work to share.  NO PINCHING FOR MY HONEY!

Grace and I made St. PAtrick's Day CUPCAKES last nite.  They are chocolate with GREEN icing on top (and GREEN sugar) with SNAKES (gummy worms).  There is the legend of St. Patrick ridding Ireland of snakes...so I added them to the tops.

For supper tonite, we will have Roast beef (cause I don't do Corned Beef) and GREEN mashed potatoes and rolls, with our cupcakes for dessert.  I JUST LOVE St. PATRICK'S DAY!

 

May the road rise to meet you

May the wind stay at your back

May the sun shine gently on your face

May the rain fall softly on your field

 

And until we meet again

May the Lord hold you in the palm of his hand!

 

Dear Lord, I just thank you for the a chance to celebrate the life of a man who was so dedicated to you.  Someone, that was merely a man, chosen by you, to carry out Your word and Your gospel.  Lord, I pray that I can follow by his example, and lead others to Christ, especially my children.  I'm grateful for a heritage that is so richly blessed by a faith that is so strong and that has been passed down to me for generations.  I pray that we use this day to Honor you and better serve others.  In Your Name, AMEN

Sounds like you have had a wonderful St. Patrick's Day! I enjoyed your cell phone story on my blog. That amazing piece of technology can lead to no end of mischief!

Nope. It won't let me sign in either. They have been doing some updating, but I thought they would be done by now. Maybe not.



Sounds like a fabulous day...

OK, this is me (PRESCHOOLMOMMY), but I can't post a new entry. I still can't get on here and it's making me SOOOO irritated. I've sent 3 e-mails already, and have heard nothing. 2 were sent back as undeliverable. How can that be? It's the e-mail address that THEY posted. I'm going insane!
