MOM and JAN don't keep reading. Just stop at the photo! Look, Oscar is learning to sit up!
So anyway, I saw this cool gift idea on Pinterest. If you want to buy one, here's the Etsy listing. Finding the pennies took days of searching and, ultimately, swapping a pile of pennies in a tip jar at the copy shop for a dollar bill. That was the mother lode--found all the years I needed!
This is for my mom so I included four pennies--one for each of her daughters and one for each of her grandchildren.
After I found the pennies and a keyring (from the junk drawer ;) The drilling and assembly took about 5 minutes.
My favorite part is the difference between Oscar's shiny penny and my tarnished one. But his is mostly zinc and mine is all copper, baby!
AH, he is so cute!!

You could be my best friend. If you lived in KY, that is :-)
