A Peep Show

I think that a woman's purse says a lot. If we could peek in her purse at any given moment it would give us a glimpse into her life. I used to be an organized person, but that went out the window somewhere between child #3 and #4. My purse used to be mine, a place that I could neatly organize all those things a lady needs to have when out of the house. Now my purse resembles the family junk drawer. The place where everyone drops their "necessities", a "go to" place when they don't really have anywhere else to put it. It has become a place that holds my stuff as well as the remnants of a busy life with four kids. Here is a little peep show....

Just think not to many years and you will have a neat organized purse again, but no little ones around you to enjoy.
Love,
Mom
