Day 79. How cool is this. I remember playing with this at my granny's house. It is a toothpick holder. You can't see it from the picture, but on the end of his nose is two little points that stab a toothpick when you push his head down. When he comes up there is your toothpick. So you only touch the one you will use. But I liked it so much I would take the toothpick off and then get another. When the holder was empty I would put them back and start again. When my grandparents passed away mom asked if there was anything that I really wanted. This was it. Now it sits in our china cabinet with my nativity sets and Stacy's Precious Moments collection. We spent all day at a Junior Bible Quiz meet and while I did take some pictures they weren't ones I could post here. I don't like posting pictures of other people's kids, especially without permission. Anyway, when I got home I was looking around for a shot and found this. He brought back some cool memories. I may not have inherited a fortune in gold, but what I did get is worth more than any amount of gold.

I LOVED that little guy. While we were at the fair a few weeks ago, recognized so many dishes and afghans that I had seen over the years. The kids thought I was REALLY old! It does bring back vivid memories. Thanks for sharing!
