I know that St. Patrick's Day isn't supposed to be about pinching, it's supposed to mean something else. A long time ago, there was a man named Patrick. He told people about God. He said that a shamrock is kinda like God. One leaf stands for Father, the other Son, and the last leaf, Holy Spirit. The stem stands for God. He holds everything together. If you pull the stem, it all falls apart. Then Patrick died on March 17, 2011. But how did they come up with this little ol' saying that says, "If you aren't wearing green, then you get pinched". How?
