Happy St. Patty's Day

The wife sure does like her holidays.  She's got seasonal napkin holders.  She's even got a different door wreath for each month.  She's got traditions out the wazoo.   It's way cute how she gets into them with the kiddos.  Take today's festival for example.  Every year she and kids set out a leprechaun trap, complete with Lucky Charms as bait.  And every year, the pesky imp manages to outsmart us.  Not only does the little green fellow avoid the trap and eat the sugary cereal, but he wreaks all kinds of havoc as well. Messing things up.  Drawing on the mirrors (and sometimes the kids while their sleeping).  And most annoying of all, leaving our toilet bowls  filled with liquid green, just like the Chicago river.  Someday we'll catch that critter and his pot o' gold too.
