St Patrick's Day, is one of my favorite days of the year! I love this day and enjoy all the "green" that the day brings. I love celebrating things and when I became a mother, I have enjoyed making these types of days special. It's nothing major, by no means, but it's fun and memorable. Last Saturday was no different, when I woke up I got our annual "pot-of-gold" hunt all ready. The boys weren't up yet, so I got breakfast going and waited. The morning was simple, but I made our favorite sweet rolls and then gave Ethan the 1st clue that led him to the next, etc, etc. I loved the giggles and just plain fun this type of thing brings to our family. Hearing him run around to find each clue and calling his brother to come along, just made my heart happy. I know people look at me like I'm crazy, but you know these types of things my boys will remember forever. I hope that they look back and remember how fun their childhood was. If that happens, then I will smile from ear to ear knowing that I did my job! I feel kids are growing up way too fast these days and if finding a bucket filled with green items, every year on St. Patrick's Day, helps my boys enjoy their childhood that much more, than this mom will be continuing to do it. I might even carry it over to my grandkids...lol! I just love doing this type of thing! Anyway, I know my boys enjoy it, so that is what matters at this moment in time! The sad truth is time is going by too fast, so I'm enjoying every chance I get to have fun, make a memory, and hear those giggles from my boys while I can!
