This St. Patrick’s day tradition is a great hit at our house. The boys build a box to catch a leprechaun. This year they glued clover to the outside of the box. They didn’t catch a leprechaun but he left them a pile of gold (which was much larger before I took the photo) and a note that must be read aloud in an Irish accent, of course. Which my hubby does perfectly.
I came by today at the break of dawn,
Alas, you didn’t catch me, The Leprechaun.
Nice try, two Laddies! You were very bold.
For that I leave you a pile of gold.
‘Til next year,
The Leprechaun
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
