On this day, within a timespan of 15 minutes, I found twenty-three 4-leaf clovers, plus a rare bonus – a 5-leaf clover – all in the same patch of grass. Once I had gathered 15, I decided I couldn’t leave until I found 3 more (we are a family of 18). The day wasn’t over yet – I found even more!!!
Somebody up there really likes me and I think it’s you, Dad. This bouquet is for you. AND… take note, I’m one day ahead of your birthday this time!! Plus, I recall on this day 50 years ago, you enlisted in the Marines, served in Korea… You made it home safely, and the rest, as they say, is history! Much love…..
