Leprechauns?

We recently read a St. Patrick's day book about catching Leprechauns that Nora brought home from school and she is all about it.  I was a little disappointed when that was the first thing she said this morning and after work.  I am prepared as a parent for Santa and the Easter bunny, but I have to admit as Irish as I am, I still was not prepared for Leprechauns, thank goodness J.R. was.  So here is a picture of J.R. setting the trap.  (I had a few more pics but my memory card ate them up--trip to Radio Shack tomorrow).  We have a quarter hanging from a rope in the box (because Leprechauns like money for their pot of gold) and we draped the Irish flag over the box to attract the Leprechaun.  Now the story goes that if we catch one we have to make him laugh to get the pot of gold.   Stay tuned to see what happens....



Happy St. Patrick's Day!
