St. Patrick's Day

I am thankful to live in a town that has a month long celebration centering around a missionary who was passionate about the Trinity. I would like to know the connection to little green men, luck and pots of gold. sigh. We Americans know how to get carried away. Anywho, I am looking forward to our three favorite events, the pancake supper, road race (and the order is right-- eat and several days later run) and the parade. My kids are learning, with continued effort, who Patrick was.
Ek missed her green party today due to an at least 1 and half hour coughing fit last night. When we picked H up from school, H and his teacher reported that they had prayed for Ek and Ek reported that God answered those prayers that she is much better. Hallelujah. Later in the day, H fell and hurt his arm, 5 bandaids later and it is just a little bit better, to Ek while riding in the car and straining to see her from his car seat across L, "Ek, will you pray for my arm, it is just getting a little bit better." Hallelujah.
