Maleia has been speaking Irish since I taught my preschool kiddos a few things they say in Ireland. She has been calling all her Barbie's "Lassies" and Dylan a "Laddie." And saying "Top o the mornin!" to everyone she sees. Whether it is morning or not. And instead of saying yes, she says, "aye."
So this is what she said to me:
Me: Did you wash your hands?
Maleia: Aye, Lassie!
We of course had a great Preschool Green Party and my favorite quote was from a little boy today (talking about yesterday's party.)
Steven: I ate so much green stuff that I pooped green!
Carlitos: (the only other boy) laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh!!!
Girls: eeeeeeeewwwwwww! Gross!
It must be a guy thing.
We also wen't to a St. Patrick's party on Saturday, so that was fun having authentic Irish stew, shepherd's pie and Irish desserts since a native Irish man made them. It was great fun! I was trying to convince my friend to dye her pool green, but she thought better of it. Darn. :)

This year is the first that I didn't serve green cream cheese on a green breadish/onion roll. And green milk and green scrambled eggs. I wasn't up to it this year. But I totally lied and told my mom I did :p Our family loves St. Patty's and when we were kids we actually tried to dye our pool green. We dumped the whole bottle of those little raindrop shaped colors in, and it did nothing. We complained to our dad and got in big trouble. we used to live in Chicago, though, and oh the things those people do. I'm not a big fan of corned beef, so next year I'll make my shepherd's pie and call it good.
ReplyDeleteI think pooping green is probably the BEST part of St. Patrick's Day....
