'Nah

Life's easier with more words. That's what I've been remembering with Henry lately. Last night he impressed me again by remembering the word "scrub" and scrubbing his hair really well in the tub. Before long he'll be bathing himself! I was also happy to play "point to the bananas" (or "'nah" as Henry says) and "show the trees" while reading his books to him before bedtime. Just pointing at cars and trucks was getting old. ;)

Last night's coins were a little better than the night before.

400 quarters didn't produce anything.

3,250 dimes turned up two silver Rosies (1948D, 1964) and seven Canadians.

2,360 nickels yielded two War Times (1945P, 1945S), seven Canadians (3 Ni), one US penny and one US dime.

5,200 pennies had in them twenty-three Wheats, forty-two Canadians, six US dimes and one play coin. The play coin says "Play Dough" and "5" on it. At first I thought it was a new foreign coin and then I thought it was related to Play-Doh, but both assumptions were wrong. I think it is relatively old as it is made out of metal. The Wheats were:

1919, 1941D, 1944(2), 1945D, 1946, 1946S, 1950(3), 1952, 1952D, 1953, 1953D(2), 1955D, 1956D(2), 1957D(2), 1958, 1958D
