TOO Funny!!!

Okay, I have one of those too funny stories. I need to give it a small introduction to be completely understood though!!!
I know every woman out there has done this. When we had Lily's party a few weeks ago, I grabbed a lighter out of the kitchen on our way out the door, so that I could light the candles. I put in in the little change thing in the car, and it has been there since. Well, I happened to notice it the other day, and I stuck it in my purse, so I would remember to put it back in the house where it belongs. Now, I know that I am not the only woman who has stuck something in her purse, to "remember" to put it away later. Then a month after that, "found" it when they were cleaning out their purse. Well, in my defense, I hardly ever actually carry a purse. I, to be honest, hardly ever even leave the house. Well, obviously, I did not remember to put it away. My very curious son discovered said lighter tonight in the middle of church. He proceeded to stick it in his mouth. My mother-in-law (bless her heart) nearly had a heart attack. I didn't really think to much about it, just took it away and put it in the zipper part of my purse so he couldn't get it again, and went back to singing. The more I got to thinking about it the funnier it got to me. I can just imagine what was going through her head (and the heads of those sitting behind us). So after church, I asked, "Doesn't everyone carry a lighter around in their purses", to which I got a VERY interesting look!!!! After explaining, of course, she understood. But, like I said, I can just imagine the things that people were thinking about me.
The moral of the story:
"Don't judge a book by it's cover (or what it has in it's binding!!!!)"

Dude, i totally know where you're coming from on this.

Not so much the Avery puttin it in his mouth, but the lighter in the purse and forgetting about it part.

I find treasurers when I go through my purse. It's amazing...
