“There are only two kinds of people in the world, The Irish and those who wish they were !” an old Irish proverb.
I claim to be half Irish on my daddy’s side. Heaven knows my maiden name is proof of that. I have never traced my daddy’s roots but I know that my cousin Mike in Missouri has been trying to do this. Actually that is how I found my cousin Mike and cousin Bryce and various relatives in south central Missouri. One day I typed my dad’s name into google and that is how I found Mike and Bryce. They were searching for our mutual grandfather. I happen to have a picture of my grandfather on my dad’s side which I sent to them. In fact the picture is posted in the left column of my blog. My dad looked just like him.
My sis Rae brought this back for me when she visited Ireland several years ago. I love it!
It is still cold and windy here this morning but I take heart in the fact that it is only 2 days till the first day of Spring. Hope this week is a good one for us all!
Stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
