We're Lucky.

It's late, polliwogs, but if you read this before St. Patrick's Day morning, we're going to be in the parade, entry #43 with W. and C.'s school. We've tricked out the scooter and wagon in serious style. Look for three kids in Viking helmets (with the horns spray-painted green, naturally) and a dude in a black Utilikilt with a green mohawk. I'll be the square with them.

And in case you wondered, it's REALLY hard to find St. Patrick's Day decorations the night before St. Patrick's Day. It forces some deep and profound creativity out a mother. I'm the stronger for it.

don't these things start at some ungodly hour? I'll look for you, though, if I can.

tomorrow I'll be a McConnell through and through, m'dear.

I gotta see Neef in that kilt. Not to mention the mohawk. Yee-haw!

I love that parade. When my kids were little, we were in it every year with the O'Brien clan. They still reminisce about it.

I have a mental picture, but I'd like a real one as well. Maybe Tuesday?

Your deep and profound creativity is an inspiration to us all. I'm going to go dye something green myself, for household use only.

Why is it that your blog just stopped updating in Bloglines like... 2 or 3 months ago? I am retarded... I'm resubscribing.

Love you!
