pooping pennies

So we went to our new amusement park, Carrowinds, to get season passes. While in line, Myles finds a penny. And being in the absent minded state that I have been in lately, I let him play with it while we waited. As we get to the front and start getting our finger prints scanned, Noah says something to Myles about the penny. I became aware once again that Myles had the penny. I did not see it anywhere and began to get a bit anxious. I asked him where it was and he pointed to his mouth and coughed. I quickly tried to see if i could fish it out of his mouth but it seemed as though he must of swallowed it since it wasn't there. Tim said it probably rolled away somewhere and not to worry. But i could smell the scent of the penny on Myles's breath. So anyway i did my best not to panic or think about it and hoped he would be fine. Today, two days and 6 poops later the penny emerged, good as new with Myles completely unfazed about the whole thing. What it must be like to be two.

that is pretty gross, but i'm with mel...up his nose would've been much worse, and even would've probably been a trip to the drs. to get it out! my brother swallowed a toothpick once and had to let that just come out his poop! and he was in high school, not 2!!!
