My dad, the leprechaun
Side story, my sweet dad was born and raised in Ireland and spoke with the lilt of an Irish brogue. He was a little guy standing just about 5 foot 6 inches tall with the biggest kindest heart.
I always swore that he had the magical powers of a leprechaun. Maybe he did? At least in my eyes he was magical and totally amazing too. He makes me so proud to be Irish and happy to celebrate on the 17th.
