Leprechauns?

Since St. Patrick's Day last year at the kids' old daycare, Alyssa and Isaiah have both been infatuated with leprechauns. Anytime we can't find something, they are sure that the leprechauns took it. It is hilarious and always rears it head at the funniest times. Isaiah got to bring home a "cannon ball" (a black balloon) on the last day of pirate camp. Here is a conversation I had with Isaiah today concerning his cannon ball and the leprechauns:

Mom: Isaiah, you shouldn't sit on the cannon ball, you are going to pop it.
Isaiah: (Being 3, of course, he sits HARDER on it.) Look mom, it didn't pop. I have a magic bottom.
Mom: You have a magic bottom?
Isaiah: Yep. The leprechauns came and sprinkled it with gold dust while I was sleeping.
Mom: So, your magic bottom doesn't pop balloons when you sit on them.
Isaiah: Nope!

I wonder if the leprechauns have enough gold dust for my bottom? :-)
