Our hearts are with Japan. Thank you for featuring some of the shops on Etsy that are fund raising!<br />To my knowledge, I haven't a drop of Irish, but I do love St. Patty's day and deck myself out in green to celebrate. I enjoyed the story of your brooch, that was darling!

I think the world is still stunned by the chain of cataclysmic events that rocked Japan...it all seems like some horrible bad dream and I keep hoping that we'll soon awaken from it.<br />Your memories of childhood and Catholic parochial school brought back sweet memories of my own days taking Catholic Catechism classes. BTW, the brooch is lovely, even as a child you had a keen eye for nice jewelry. <br /><br />May the luck of the Irish be with you. :)Almost Precioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02349435936032378395noreply@blogger.com
