We are four days out of Springing Forward to daylight savings time but we're still having a hard time getting our bodies adjusted. To help get Jack downstairs for breakfast this morning I told him he had a surprise waiting for him from the leprechaun. That seemed to do the trick and he came down to his seat at the table to find a little pot o' gold coins! He was very excited to have more money to put into his piggy bank!
But it wasn't long before he was asking "how long until I get something else in my little pot?" We had a long talk about how the holiday's only come once a year (365 days he has to wait) before we shifted our attention to Easter and what the Easter Bunny might bring him. Of course, I had made the mistake of buying a Star Wars egg decorating kit with him present, so now I get asked everyday, "can we color eggs today?" What was I thinking!?!
Jack helped Ethan with his pot of gold, as all Ethan wanted to do was toss the pot all over the house!
We had St. Patrick's Day cards to open from Nana and Granddad, so we got them on the computer while the boys opened up their cards. They were very excited to get the cards and more gold coins to put in their banks.
Now I just have to think of something yummy for dinner that the boys will actually eat....
Hope you all have a Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
