Leprechauns & the Tooth Fairy

Leprechaun coin....Benji made about 10 Leprechaun traps all through our house in hopes of catching the little green guy and making him tell where he hid his gold!

unfortunately the little bugger was not lured into the traps, & he
messed up our house, turned our milk and German oven pancakes green to show his tricky nature...

But he was kind in the end and left a little gold candy and a fun fortune clover to make up for his naughtiness...Benji is a "happy successful" boy!

the adventure did not end with our morning. Benji went to Gymnastics and then to school where I was able to help the little kindergartners find clues "Lucky the Leprechaun" left all through their school and led them to a pot of his gold!

Benji is the little green guy on the left.

He was even lucky enough to find one of the treasures and clues hidden in the library...The blarney stones for each kid!

Games played after the pot o gold was discovered.

When Benji was asked what he would do with the money if he found the pot O gold...He said he would buy infinity toys...

I have always loved St. Patricks Day. I am so glad we get to celebrate it with Benji every year. These are the great moments as parents!


The Next Day Benji Got his FIRST visit from the TOOTH FAIRY! He pulled it out all by himself!

Before he lost his tooth sometime last week We talked about the tooth fairy and that they sometimes leave money under your pillow in exchange for your lost tooth. Benji enthralled in the idea said, If she leaves $ 10.00 I would give (counting on his hands) $8 to you to adopt a baby, and then I would use $2 to buy me a toy! (he is so stinking sweet!)

We are so proud of him ... :( our little boy is growing up. Sigh :(
