the lucky man

March 17, 2010- Here's our little cowboy leprechaun. Pecos learned about leprechauns at school the week before St. Pat's Day when they were on the letter 'R' and talked about rainbows. So he told me it was St. Patrick's Day, Green Day and Lucky Man Day. What better way to start the day than with green pancakes!

Then a week later we had a storm blow through and left behind this rainbow. Pecos told me he had never seen a real rainbow and then said "I hope there is a Lucky Man on it!" I told him me too and I hope he has a pot of gold for me. For the next hour all he could talk about was going to look for that Lucky Man. Finally I told him if he ate all his supper we would ride down to the pasture and look for the Lucky Man. Of course he ate every bite and declared he was ready to go look for the Lucky Man. So we looked and looked and looked. I drove everywhere Pecos pointed and we even drove down the road a bit. Finally Pecos decided he must be gone and we'll find him next time. I'm still waiting for that pot of gold.
