small change


Several years ago,
we started saving change for our 25th anniversary.
Seeing that it's just a tad over 2 months away
and childcare is finally lined up,
I figured today would be a good day to count the coins.
We all made ridiculously low guesses as to how much money there was .
I can't be exactly sure how much we saved,
 (it turns out that some of our dollar stacks of quarters were made of 5 coins, instead of 4)
and we didn't count the pennies (we're guessing maybe about $20 worth?)
but the silver monies, 43 pounds of dimes, nickles and quarters,
came to almost $500!!

It just goes to show you that small change can make a big difference.
