Andrew was so funny. I dropped a bit of green food coloring in the bottom of his glass, so when he came and ate first, he poured his white milk from the carton, and it turned green in his glass. I've done this many times before on other occasions, but for some reason, he was confused.
"Mom, why is the milk doing that? Why is it green?"
"Well, it IS St. Patrick's day. I guess it's just St. Patrick's Day magic!" (wink wink, because, hey, this kid is TEN YEARS OLD!)
"WOW."
That was it for about 5 minutes, when suddenly he bursts out..."oh. I get it!" (He had looked in the other glasses and saw the food coloring. I wonder why it took him so long! I guess they still like surprises!)
That night we were invited to "green dinner" with my mom and a few cousins, and of COURSE I forgot my camera! Ugh!
Oh well. I did manage to sneak chocolate gold coins into their lunches without them seeing. Not much else happened. I guess we'll find that rainbow another day.
