loose change

I've been reading the blog Lovely Little Things for quite some time now. I can't even remember how I found it. But I liked how Jessica had a schedule for what to expect on her blog. On Mondays, she puts up a challenge called Smell the Roses, which basically encourages you to do something to "smell the roses" and enjoy life a little bit. I always read the weekly task, but do I ever participate? No, not really.


However... this week's task was: Collect all of your loose change and either donate it or use it to do something fun.


I decided to actually do this one. I am going to collect all our loose change in the apartment and put it into baby's college fund that we've started. I've already gotten a piggy bank and we've opened an account for her college fund, so why not start putting it away now? Even if it's just a few dollars here and there, it can't hurt! Plus, Bry always mentions that we're gonna need an additional "wedding fund" for this little bebe... Wait, didn't I just get married? How are we already saving for our daughter's wedding? Jeepers, I better get some more change!
