So far we have four piggy banks in our house. I really like piggies.
The small silver one was the first one I got while dating #1. The large pink one was the second one I got from #1. He brought it back from a trip. The flowered one is actually my baby's from my sister for Christmas. Finally the white angel piggy is from my SIL and family also for Christmas.
The pink piggy is nice and large and can hold a ton of change. So I designated that as the loose change piggy. I realized that I didn't really need another loose change piggy, because it would take quite a long time to fill up pinky. I needed Angel piggy to have a purpose.
I decided to have Angel piggy be a memory piggy. Throughout the year #1 and I will write down memories on small pieces of paper and put them in Angel piggy. Then on New Year's eve we will open the piggy and read all the memories we recorded over the year. Almost like a journal. It will be a great new tradition and much easier than remembering to do a baby book or write in a journal each day.

Oh I read about someone else who did this - can't remember where - and I loved the idea! I guarantee those memories will make you feel richer than the spare change ever would!
ReplyDeleteWell as you can see by the last picture, I did not come up with the idea myself. I saw it on pinterest and then applied i to our home. I do think it is a great idea and I am excited to start the tradition.
