Today is St.Patrick's Day of celebration and recognition of Irish roots. I woke this morning to a text from my mother, wishing me a happy St. Patty's Day. She does not know how to text. A chuckle, as I remember the card in my purse that I failed to mail to my parents. Darn. One day I will be on time. For now, the weather is nice this week and makes you feel hopeful for spring. Today I have warm thoughts of my Irish roots and Irish music in my head.
