On Saturday, Nicholas awoke from his very long nap, crawled out of (my) bed without a peep or a plop, and I found him sitting at the top of our short staircase to the living room. I don't know how long he had been sitting there. Looked like he was contemplating crawling down the stairs. More amazing than funny - I guess. I even had the baby monitor on - and still didn't hear him. Usually, when he wakes from any nap, he lays crying in bed until I come to get him.
On Sunday morning, I tried to have Will put a quarter in his pocket for the collection at Mass, but he didn't want it. Later, I heard him talking in the other room about quarters, so I assumed his Daddy had given him a quarter. As the collection basket neared us at Mass, I looked at what he was holding - foreign currency! I have a collection of foreign coins from pre-children trips. Sophia likes to play with it. He found one & put it in his pocket! I knew we would have major melt-down if he was not allowed to drop it in the basket, so in went the Queen's money! Good thing Michael is on the collection-counting-committee at Church. He was able to retrieve the coin without too much suspicion;)
