A day early, I know, but I will be absent from blogdania tomorrow, attempting to get Miss D Two past the 20,000 word mark. Meanwhile, here are some of my favorite Irish blessings for some of my favorite people!
28 wise, witty and wonderful comments
Ah, your words are singin' t'the Irish in me!
Okay, so here is where I tell the story about my little guy. We were in the middle of Kmart and he was demonstrating the tap dancing he was doing at school. Then he said, "I think it's the Irish in me!"
These are so great Heidi. Love 'em.
And what a cutie that Little Guy is. :)
Love the devil one! Thanks for the Irish. I needed it today. :)
Btw, did you ever fill us in on your husband's job? Is all well?
I love those. Thanks for the St. Patty's Day wishes! Good luck on finding some more words!
I really hope that I'm in heaven before the devil realized I was dead. That would be awesome! Happy St. Patricks!
These are so cute. I just discovered your blog through a comment you left on one of my friend's blogs -- and after reading through it a bit I ordered your book from Amazon. You are quite the inspiration!
Lisa--yeah, well, it seems like he is catching on, too so I think I had better stop telling him how delightful he is (but he IS!) Kazzy--yep, we are in the clear, this year, anyway. Julie--thanks! Laura--hee hee, you're mixing your Irish with your Scottish but it's all good. Rachel--yes, I figure I need that blessing, too! :) Christy--you made my day!! Woo hoo!
May the wind be ever at your back, and may you write as if your pen--or keyboard--had kissed the blarney stone.
I think I'll read these to my kids at breakfast tomorrow over green pancakes :)
Yeah, I don't profess to be any good at accents/linguisitics. =P But happy St. Patricks Day all the same!
Pam--how cute! Thanks! Rachel--what a great idea! I think I'll be serving Lucky Charms. . . Laura--just ignore me! I'm a Celtic culture snob. Really really snobby.
I love it! Such a fun post. I had almost forgotten it was St Patty's day tomorrow. You'll be missed :)
I love those! They are so fun. Although just as I finished reading the first one my dad limped into the room. I am pretty sure he loves me though. Happy St. Patrick's Day! Good luck with your writing.
they are all so clean!! The ones I learned were too naughty to post!
The last one is my fav! Good luck on hitting that 20,000 word mark - we're all rooting for you!
Terrific. I especially like the one about being in heaven before the devil knows you're dead. :)
Heather--I will miss reading everyone's posts, too! Joy--that is SO funny! Fiona--I get it now! They teach the Scottish kids the naughty Irish blessings . . . makes sense! Becky--I'm so tired right now I don't know if I can do much of anything tomorrow but I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Barb--me too! That's why I saved it for last!
The first and last ones are my favorites. Awesome! The Irish know how to say it!
Sending you happy writing vibes for tomorrow!
I liked the one about the people who don't like you limping. I guess I am to spiteful that way. Thanks for the Irish frame of mind.
I got that first one a few years ago from a friend. Love it. It would sure be useful, huh?
I feel luckier just reading that Heidi. Thanks for the words to get me going.
Hey...I thought you were supposed to be writing. No responding to comments for you today!
Many very fun and green sentiments in this post. My favorite part? Your use of the word "blogdania." That is why you are the genius behind the fabulous Miss D.

(I just emailed my family a link to this post for my Irish blessings. Hope you don't mind! :)

Love Irish Blessings and a belated Happy St. Patrick's Day to you.
