Bracken has been saving his money to buy Christmas presents this year. He really wanted a piggy bank, so I helped him make one by cutting a hole in the lid of an empty hot chocolate can. He's been scouring sidewalks and store floors for pennies, and doing chores like helping me scrub down the bathroom, mop the floor, and do the dishes to earn nickels.
Today his Aunt and Uncles sent him a letter with pictures and stickers, and "oh boy!", Sarah sent a dollar. She tripled his Christmas savings. He was soo excited and hurried to pull out his piggy bank, pay his tithing, and count his money with Chandra to see if he has enough to go Christmas shopping yet.
