The Leprechauns stopped by our house the night before St. Patrick's Day and dyed our milk and toilet water green, put up green streamers in the kitchen, and left green donuts. We attribute this generosity of spirit to the loving and friendly letter Madeleine wrote to the Leprechauns and set out before she went to bed.
Katherine approached the holiday with a little more horse sense. Apparently she went to bed wondering how it all was going to work...naughty little green men sneaking into her house in the middle of the night and what-not. She must have concluded that it wasn't a great idea, because she woke up screaming with nightmares about Leprechauns four times before midnight.
In the end it was little Elisabeth who had the most fun. She ate her green donut for breakfast, and then methodically crawled around the kitchen floor snarfing down all the chunks of donut that were dropped by her sisters. And people wonder why we affectionately call her "Fat Face."
AWWW! What adorable girls, Lauren!
