9 years later...

I finally found Utah!!!!  It was the last state quarter I needed.  After I placed the final quarter in the book, I had this overwhelming sense of accomplishment--wow, I am done...I really did it...I have finished collecting them all...there are no more empty spaces!  Then I looked around the room and saw the kids all playing together and I realized how much time has passed since I started collecting these quarters and all the things that have happened in my life over the past nine years.  

When I started collecting these quarters, I had no kids and now--9 years later and four kids later--I have all the quarters!  Kind of crazy....
