Irish Girls........


Happy St. Patrick's Day to all my friends out there in blogland! I am part Irish, my grandmother's maiden name was O'Shea and her married name was McManigle. Pretty Irish! Today is the day when everybody is Irish, if just for one day. So you get to be fun loving and hard headed. I am very tenacious which I think of as a product of my Irish heritage. I stick with something even if it is difficult because "tough times come and go but tough people don't". I'm leaving you to celebrate the day with these 2 Artist Trading Cards. The one with the young girls in it are my mom (the little one) and my aunt (the tall one), they were 7 years apart in age. The picture was taken in the spring. My mom has a new hankie that she wanted everyone to see and that's why she is holding it fanned out between her fingers. My aunt is wearing a sour frown with her hands shoved in her pockets, one sock up, one sock down, collar all messed up on her blouse. She's looking so put out because she told my mom she was stupid for carrying around the hankie! The picture makes me smile no matter how many times I see it. That's the beauty of photos.....frozen in time, forever spring with a new crisp white hankie or hands in your pockets with one sock up and one sock down.......
