I love having a green treat for my boys when they come home from school on St. Patrick’s Day. Of course we usually do a St Patty’s Day craft or cutting activity to get all holiday festive. But there’s just something about sharing a fun treat while they share their enthusiastic stories and giggle about setting Leprechaun traps in their classroom. Or the question, “Is there really a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow?” These moments are priceless. So get cookin’, momma and enjoy those sweet little innocent questions and giggles!
