Mother’s Day weekend went off without a hitch, nah one missing item of clothing.
We got up that morning and I made egg bake. Yum! My favorite. Then, rather than jumping up and getting to the 8 o’clock service, we were lazy. We ate breakfast in bed, played a few games and took our time in preparing for the 10:30 church service.
But then, as always, we had to rush to get out the door on time. I asked my kids to get dressed themselves. I took a shower. My husband grabbed a few water bottles for the car, and off we went.
It wasn’t until AFTER I sent my son and daughter to Sunday school that the missing clothing item was discovered.
My daughter wore a skirt and top. She walked from her Sunday school class to the car after church.
I picked her up to put her in and discovered - yup, she’d not put on panties!
Ok, just a bit horrified that I sent her to church in a skirt and no panties, I silently grabbed the extra pair I keep in the car and had her put them on before I met her grandmother for lunch (I’m not sure which would have been worse: no panties at church or no panties having lunch with Grammie).
I wish I could say this is the first time it’s happened, but, alas, it’s not.
A few weeks back she got dressed and the pants she put on had a hole in them.
Yup, guess what. Luckily her school teachers discovered it pretty early on and remedied the situation.
I think I’ll have to do a clothing check from now on.
