Very Superstitious?

We sold our house in Holland! Hooray! I said to my wife, "Isn't it great that we sold our house without even burying a statue of St. Joseph in the yard." Yes! A victory over superstition! My wife said rather sheepishly, "Well, I did bury a statue of St. Joseph about three weeks ago, just before we got the offer on our house." Yikes! A victory for superstition?
