Blessing # 1
May your troubles be less
And your blessings be more.
And nothing but happiness
Come through your door.
Blessing # 2
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.
Blessing # 3
May luck be our companion,
May friends stand by our side,
May history remind us all
Of Ireland’s faith and pride.
Blessing # 4
“Leprechauns, castles, good luck and laughter;
Lullabies, dreams and love ever after.
Poems and songs with pipes and drums;
A thousand welcomes when anyone comes…”

Joke #1
May those who love us love us.
And those that don’t love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn’t turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles,
So we’ll know them by their limping.
Joke # 2
Here’s to you and here’s to me
I pray that friends we’ll always be,
But if by chance we disagree,
The heck with you and here’s to me!
