The Emerald Isle holds a special place in our hearts. We got engaged there in 2007:
Right before we hiked up the mountain where Mr. B proposed.
Mr. B is essentially half Irish - his mother (my MIL) Violet grew up in Belfast and while that's Northern Ireland, I think she still has the luck of the Irish if you ask me! (And a great Irish accent !)
One of my favorite prayers is the Old 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 rain fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
May the wind be always at your back,
The sun shine warm upon your face,
The rain fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
