New Money or Something Worth A Lot More

New Money or something worth a lot more.

We had a man give us some money today.

That is not really accurate, but it is what he said as he was doing it.

The man was visiting a neighbor in the campground and struck up a friendly conversation. And while talking to us, he noticed and commented on the cross necklace I was wearing (a gift from my brother John and sister-in-law Stephanie, on the day of my baptism). And then he said he wanted to give us some money. He reached in his pocket and gave us each a penny. A penny that had been stamped to punch out a cross from the center. Then he reached in his pocket again and retrieved the "drop". The cross that had been punched out.

No, he didn't really give us money. He shared peace with us.

I thought it was pretty neat.

My Lovely liked them too. But she really liked what he said as he was leaving. He told us 'young people' to have fun.

We are going to have fun. And we will be as young as we can be.
