Baby’s receive lots of new visitors, and here’s a fun tradition we started this time around!

Before Veronika was born, I purchased a pretty jar and a little notebook, with the idea that each visitor would drop in a penny (almost like in a wishing will) and jot down a note or two of well wishes.

Big brother Travis loved the idea so much he wanted to give her some pennies to start her collection! We cracked open his piggy bank and sorted the pennies from the other coins, starting her off with a full dollar.

When we have visitors, it’s big brother’s very important job to tell them about the wish jar. We love reading what visitors have to say, and this will be a great keepsake to look back on!
