This is such a fun day, well as long as your wearing green its a fun day. I remember on St. Patrick's Day last year, Bryon said he refused to wear green and that I was not, under any circunstance, allowed to pinch him. Well, of course, that means nothing to me, so I proceed to pinch him as often as possible. Well, he got tired of it and decided to tape a green M&M (his favorite candy) to his shirt so that I would have to stop pinching him. What a goofball! You can see the picture below. Boy was he proud of himself for being so cunning. :)

Aside from that, today is my little sister Mary's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR MARY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!! Mary, Nate and Ayden are living in Seminole, Florida with his parents now, while Nate is doing his culinary internship (not sure exactly what its called, but internship sounds good). They will be home soon though and will be moving to Boone (yes, most definately God's country up there, so georgous!)
In addition to all of that, today is the graduation fair at UNCC. What that means is that today, I pick up my cap and gown and hood for graduation. Wow!!! The end is really in site. Sometimes it seems like I've been in school forever. It's only been three years of graduate school but I guess that, plus 4 years undergraduate makes a whole lot of education. The goal, of course, is that I know what I'm doing so that I won't kill anyone. I had my board certification review course all weekend and am so intimidated! It's amazing how complex the human body is and how much there is to know. I will say that both UNC Chapel Hill and UNC Charlotte, together, have prepared me pretty well for being a Family Nurse Practitioner. The one thing I'm sad about is that Bryon won't be able to be at my graduation. Oh well, I'd give that up any day, to have him here when our baby is born.
I pray the luck of the Irish is with you today and the blessings of our Lord abound in your lives. I have two favorite Irish blessings to share with you.
"May you always have walls for the winds,
a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire."
and finally
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,
Until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

THIS is the Bryon we've come to Love! He's creative!! Gotta give him an E for effort!
I have to ask- Did the color wear off on his shirt? You know that they are supposed to only melt in your MOUTH, but I've seen them on my kids hands many times!!
