Addendum to the Previous Post

Kate wanted to say something about the piggabanks.
Yes, the piggabanks. This is another one of those Jackisms that despite our efforts to correct, he keeps on saying. Okay, my efforts. I think Kate encourages it because it's cute.
Anyway, piggabanks is what Jack calls coins. And there are Daddy piggabanks and Jack piggabanks. I get the "big ones" (nickels and quarters) and they go in my coin jar, and he gets the "little ones," which are dimes and pennies. Lest you think I am some miser taking away coins from my child, he is the one that insists on dividing them. Kate found a quarter on the floor and put in my jar and told Jack that it was my coin. Since then, he makes sure and divides them.
Poor Mommy. She doesn't get any piggabanks.

Wait, why are all the dollars gone from my wallet?

Bryn calls coins "moneys." The other day, she was robbing our coin jar and putting all the money in her own "money bunny" (clearly, a bank in the shape of a bunny--thanks, Grandma). I told her that if she kept taking all of my money, I wouldn't be able to buy her anything. She thought about this, then announced, "Brynie get moneys for Mommy!" She then ran off, robbed my own coin jar, and with a spirit of great generousness, placed the money in my hand. After I thanked her, she took it back and said, "Brynie put Mommy's moneys in Brynie's bunny." For safekeeping, apparently??
