We drive by this apartment complex every day and they have different colored balloons out front depending on the holidays. They just changed them to green and Fox asked what holiday is coming up. I said St. Patrick’s Day and he asked “Is that for all the people who know Grandpa Patrick?”

Fox: "Just a little bit."
