A few days ago, my son made a leprechaun trap for a school project. He took it to school and waited to see if a leprechaun would show up. One did. And he wasn't very nice!
"Mama," my son said when he came home from school. "The leprechaun destroyed my trap!"
"Really?' I said. "What did he do?"
"He ripped off the door and bashed a hole through the wall."
"It sounds like he was mad!" I said.
"Yeah. And do you know what else?"
"What else?"
My son grinned. "He pooped in there!"
I looked at that kid. "Seriously?"
"Yeah. There was a sparkly turd on the floor."
I tried not to laugh. "Oh. Well, I guess even leprechauns have to go potty. Next time design the trap with a bathroom!"
(The leprechaun did leave a nice green bead necklace. I guess that's the least he could do after all the trouble he caused!)
Well it is St. Patricks Day tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteGreat read.
Yvonne.
Hey Yvonne, now I see your profile but not your blog.
DeleteWhat an imagination. Is your son planning on being a writer,too?
ReplyDeleteI hope he didn't keep the sparkly poop. Or does it turn into gold? Nah, or the green guy wouldn't leave it.
I'm not sure what he did with the sparkly poop. I think it ended up in the garbage.
DeleteHaha! Your posts never fail to make me smile. :)
ReplyDeleteMy life is kind of crazy, isn't it?
Delete*LOL* Leprechaun poop! My weekend is complete. :)
ReplyDeleteFunny, huh?
DeleteI swear it wasn't me.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I believe you!
DeleteWhat excitement!
ReplyDeleteI would've liked to have been a fly on the wall to witness the destruction.
DeleteLol. It just wouldn't be St. Patrick's Day without something green.
ReplyDeleteNo, it wouldn't!
DeleteLOL when you gotta go you gotta go
ReplyDeleteGuess so! LOL!
DeleteI don't miss those grade school projects at all! Glad your son had such an adventure with his, though. I bet he'll be talking about the leprechaun who got away for a long time.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure he'll remember it always.
DeleteI think the leprechaun thought he was at a soccer game.
ReplyDeleteThose people go nuts.
Yes, they do! I've witnessed that firsthand in Mexico!
DeleteThe leprechaun left behind some poop? That was not nice. A green bead necklace is nice. A bit of gold or a four leaf clover might have been a nicer surprise.
ReplyDeletePretty rude, huh? ;)
DeleteA wonderful imagination, wonder what your son will be when he's older.
ReplyDeleteSandy
It will be interesting to see where his path leads.
DeleteThis one seemed particularly nasty!
ReplyDelete*hee* I guess the leprechaun got ticked off when he found out there wasn't any free gold in there...
ReplyDeleteI'm glad there was a funny follow-up. I just had to know what happened. :-) Poor, Bubba. I hope he wasn't too upset. :-(
