James woke up St. Patrick’s Day morning excited and ready to head out into the yard in search of gold. He was sure the Leprechaun’s had hidden gold under the rocks in our yard. Out we went searching… no gold! James was in complete disbelief. He just knew gold had to be around somewhere, I mean it was St. Patrick’s Day!

I was sharing my story with some friends at school and one of these amazing gals, who is Irish I might add, went right to work! James came home from his day at school ready to search again… and to his surprise, he found a Leprechaun’s Treasure Box

and gold; lots and lots of gold!

and they were better than regular old gold, these were chocolate-filled gold coins!

The look on James’ face when he found the treasure box (filled with the colors of the Irish flag) and all those chocolate coins, was priceless.

!!A very BIG thank you to my good friend, Colleen the Leprechaun!!
