Collecting Change
Thomas has been collecting change for the past few weeks as a part of his Wednesday night kids church group with Bryce. They combined their money and got to ride to Target to buy diapers for a specific charity.
When I dropped Thomas off at Bryce's church tonight, I got a picture of his proudly holding his collecting can. Once inside we saw that all the kids were counting their money. It looked like their was a shortage of those who can do math, so I stuck around and helped him count it up. And, this sweet little girl counted all his pennies. She did good too--she went to 104!
Thomas in all collected $5.04, which isn't bad for a bunch of coins.
And, while that was neat, all he cared about was getting to ride that church bus again. He gets so excited at even the thought of riding.
I left, and thought about going to Target to watch them, and realized that might cross a "creepy mommy with attachment issues" line. So, I went home.
I went back to find a very happy (and hot) little boy, and as I waited to get his car seat off the bus, I watched as 10 boxes of diapers came off, and whole bag of wipes containers. Looks like those kids did very well!
Good job guys!

I've heard they get to take the church bus to Sweet Frog on the last day. Peggy is a brave woman. I would totally get some tubs of ice cream and toppings and save my sanity, rather than take the kids there!
