Happy St. Patrick's Day to you all! We've got quite the busy day around here. I'm warming up HUGE trays of corned beef and cabbage with a boat-load of pratties to go with to bring to dh's office. The kids will get to work on these neat lapbooks.
Our reading time today will consist of some of the children's favorites: Jamie O'Rourke and the Big Potato, Jamie O'Rourke and the Pooka, Patrick Patron Saint of Ireland, and Fin M'Coul: The Giant of Knockmany Hill-- all by Tommie dePaola, and this fun story. For dessert we'll have cookies the kids made with green M&M's (okay-not the most Irish dessert, but it's the best I could do at the present)
Christ to shield me today
Against poison, against burning,
Against drowning, against wounding,
So that there may come to me abundance of reward.
Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.

Your Shamrock Says You Are Loving |
 At times, you get too involved with what's going on in other people's lives. It's hard to remove yourself. You consider yourself a lucky person. Luck always seems to be on your side. You are stylish, in a classic sort of way. You are particular about how you like things. |
