When a Dollar is Worth More Than a Dollar


Jack and I had a pretty cool thing happen to us this morning. We took one of our monthly trips to Home Depot and as we were holding hands walking towards the entrance we saw a big truck in the loading area. Jack was somewhat excited about the truck. An older man in the driver's seat of the truck was clearly amused with Jack and as we approached he mentioned several times how cute Jack looked.
He then asked if he could give Jack a golden dollar for his savings. I was a bit confused at first as he jumped out of the truck, dug out a presidential dollar and presented it to Jack.
Jack carried the dollar around all morning and seemed to be quite proud of it. We'll put it in his piggy bank tomorrow.
Pretty neat experience all around.
