Today my son found his very first 4 leaf clover.  We were outside again playing in the kiddie pool, and I noticed there were patches of clovers all around us.  I said, “Want to try looking for a four leaf clover?”  I love these little symbols of good luck and was really hoping to find one after a rough couple of days.  Immediately he found one (then went on to say finding them was so easy….of course that’s the only one we found today).  When we went inside, he said, “I’m going to keep the good luck from my clover in my sock.”  What better place to store it??  We left the clover outside all day and it became quite crinkly, but it is now safely stored between the pages of my Dad’s family bible.

I drove to the beach with the kids…what a long four hours.  I’ll be here until…when, I’m not sure.  If you don’t hear from me here, you’ll know it’s because I’m simply enjoying getting away from home and my routine.  Oh, and don’t forget to say “Jack Rabbit!”…for good luck on the 1st of the month (especially if your sock looks empty)!   Just something fun my brother and I have been saying since our high school days in Germany…not sure where it originated . 😉
