Last night I was trying to avoid another drawn out, fitful start to bedtime with Henry, so I asked him, "do you want to move your bed somewhere different?" (Henry's been sleeping on just his mattress for some time now because a few months back he decided that his bed gave him nightmares.) He said, "let's put it on that thing!" as he pointed to his bed frame. "Just for tonight," he then said. Hmmm. I think I'll be suggesting that again.

9,450 pennies turned up twenty-five Wheats, thirty-five Canadians, two US dimes and one Barbados 1¢.
