From as early as I can remember, my grandmother told me that four leaf clovers were lucky. She believed that if the person who found the four leaf clover gave it to someone other, that other person would have good luck. Well today one of those small miracles that I love happened. I'm trying to be landacaper number one in Charleston County, so sometime back I planted dutch white clover seeds around my apartment. They are even coming up between the blocks of the deck I built and I'm forever pulling up grass to give the clover best chance to grow and spread. I try to be careful not to pull up any clover with the grass I remove. But today, I slipped up and pulled up one little clover by mistake while I was picking grass. When I looked at it, it turned out to be a four leaf. Now the odds have to be one in a million, so I discussed in other posts of mine that I was searching for some talisman, some charm, some amulet...Well, today my good luck charm found me! In a very pleasant way, it took my breath away to accidentally pull up one clover from my clover patch and it when I looked had four leaves. I had been looking for one several times over several days and couldn't find one, then today, I get one by accident, not even looking at the clover but pulling grass. Now I've had clovers all through my life, usually in my wallet. But this one, I sealed immediately by running it through my laminating machine. It's the one I'll want with me all my life. Just since it was so unusual an occurrence. If I ever play bingo again, I'll take this clover with me...
