Catch the Leprechaun!

I have awaken from my coma and am now ready to start blogging again! Ok, so I'm obviously kidding, but what can I say?? I just don't think cleaning the house, doing dishes, and changing diapers is what all ya'll want to hear about so I usually try to wait until something somewhat interesting has happened. And well, trying to catch a leprechaun was a first for me!! This was an assignment Jack got in school and from day one he was planning it all out. I think he drew up about a dozen different plans on paper, many of which would have been way more elaborate than what we ended up with! But this was the finished product, (yes there's chocolate gold coins inside that pot) and he was convinced this trap was gonna do the trick (since his teachers had told them that they've never caught one yet). On St. Patricks Day when the kids walked in the classroom it was very clear that leprechauns had been there because there was gold dust all over the floor, green footprints all over everyones traps and treats for them left in their cubby's. It was all very cute. And the they didn't even take the chocolate coins! Mom was excited about that. =)
