Since Grammy and PawPaw are getting ready to move, Grammy sent a few things home with Mama B and me. One of them was a toy Mama B played with a lot when she was my age. Does anyone remember these?
It's an "Uncle Sam's 3 Coin Register Bank". These were made in the 1920's to help people save money since the door wouldn't unlatch until the bank had $10. That was a lot of money back then! The big Twigs raced around the house hunting for coins. It was a bit unfair because each time they lowered the lever the bank would register the amount then take away 5 cents. But they finally made it!
Twiggy Two is not pictured because she was sick and in her pajamas with a very bad case of bedhead. When Mama B and I got home from California, the big Twigs and Mr. Branch all had colds. Twiggy Three ended up with bulging ear infections. Mama B is trying really hard to not get sick since this week is VBS set up.
Twiggy Two and Three are excited to do a summer tradition this week. It's free. Can you guess what it is? It's not "Kids Bowl Free" even though they're signed up for that too!
Silverwood is free -- IF they earn it!
