Liam the Leprechaun

For St. Patrick's Day, we held our traditional party. Liam helped daddy make the Soda Bread this year. Daddy made a new delicious kind with onions in it. On Sunday, 30 of our friends arrived for the feast. We had fun eating, catching up and eating some more.

Daddy went to Liam's school on St. Patrick's Day to share his Irish culture. He first visited Liam's classroom, where he talked about Irish money and the flag, and even leprechauns. Apparently, the preschoolers are very interested in leprechauns. Ms. Mickaelski read the class as story about Liam the Leprechaun... so naturally they all wanted to know more about these creatures! Liam's class then had a green party, with grapes, broccoli, jello, cookies and pea pods on the menu.

Daddy went to help the big kids prepare their traditional Irish meal. He also taught them a little about Irish culture.
