One of the things about our closed adoption that I wish could change, would be the lack of information we have about Gianna's heritage. Today, especially, I wonder if she might be Irish. I'm sure she'll spend many hours in her life wondering too. Since we don't know, then our little family will just have to celebrate St. Patrick's Day like we've all got green blood. Just in case. :)
In honor of St. Patrick and our little Lucky Charm's possible Irish heritage,
I offer this tradtional Irish blessing:
I offer this tradtional Irish blessing:
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
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 hollow of his hand.
Amen.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!
