So here's the next prompt from the online list.
Prompt Two: What is the most valuable item or largest sum of money you have ever found?
When reading this prompt there was one thing that immediately came to my mind.
One day I was at the gas station waiting for my gas to finish pumping and I looked down and saw a little wooden turtle. I leaned down to pick it up and thought of my boyfriend, Matt. He really likes wooden trinkets and he also likes turtles. It was pretty plain how I found it and I wanted to put a little piece of me into it so it'd be unique.
I took it home and painted it in shades of brown and gray. I was satisfied with how it turned out and when he came home from school that weekend, I gave it to him as a present. He really liked it and to this day he carries it with him in his pocket everywhere he goes.
It was so sentimental and it's almost like it was perfect timing that I looked down before finishing pumping my gas that day. It always makes me so happy to see him carrying it around, too. Finding that one little turtle meant so much to both of us and it'll always be a sweet memory we share. :]
