Weird Things in a Mom’s Purse

Weird Things in a Mom’s Purse

When you’re a mom, you’re kind of a superhero. Hungry? Mom has the perfect snack on hand. Bleeding? On it with a bandage. We have no idea what the day will bring exactly, so I like to be prepared. My purses are usually way too big and should probably be illegal, but hey, I sure am prepared for just about anything. Here’s a few examples of weird things that can be found in a Mom’s purse:

• Sunglasses (for the entire family)
• Baby wipes
• Hand sanitizer – or as Josephine calls it “hanitizer”
• Gum wrappers
• A googly eye that fell off from a school project
• My iPhone
• 3D mascara
• Some pens – a few with all of their pieces and some without
• Fruit snacks
• Travel size sunblock
• Lip balm
• Wallet – I hope anyway
• Crayons
• Ponytail holders
• Boogie Wipes
• A notebook
• Granola bars
• Crumbs from the other granola bars
• Earphones
• Phone charger 
• Mitch-match socks
• Notebook
• A few Shopkins 
• Small first aid kit 
• Expired coupons

If you’re a Mom than I am sure you have most of these in your bags as well. I always seem to find the most random things in my purse and most tend to be items I am “holding” for my kids. Once I found a fossilized french fry at the very bottom of the pile. It’s like a complete grab bag of total randomness. Thankfully my kids are a little older now and I know longer have to carry diapers, bottles or any of that other stuff, but that doesn’t mean it gets any lighter.

If there’s one thing that I a guilty of it would be a little thing I like to call “purse hoarding”. Go ahead and judge. Just remember we all have things that make us weird and this just happened to be one of mine. It could always be worse, right?

So on to the obvious. I would love to know what’s in your purse!
