Okay…in no special order:

1. $12 Obnoxiously Yellow Emergency Purse from Target.

2. Flip Flop Ribbon (because I have daughters and one never knows when you need to ‘fancy them up’)

3. Fidget Toy (because I have a hard time keeping still in church and this enables me to listen)

4. Reading Glasses (because I am in my mid-forties and reading glasses are now a mandatory accessory)

5. Little Red Bag (that holds many of the odds and ends that are scattered around the photo)

6. ‘Popsicles’ (if you don’t know why, I can’t help you)

7. Lotion

8. Various Receipts…dinner out, gas, unmentionables…

9. 2-Year-Calendar

(I knew I could count on Denise Y to have some awesome stuff in her purse! All the cool moms' have gas reliever. P.s. I can't believe your purse holds all that stuff!)

my purse's contents! wallet makeup case pencil case (taco) keys lotion jump drive lip gloss ponytail holder 3 receipts movie ticket old grocery list altoids tin(i put my ear buds in it) contact and glasses case usually my phone but i used it for the pic..

(Heather G's entry. Notice her lotion says grace. As in, her husband is the youth pastor at Grace! Why do I find that so funny? All the cool moms' have zippered tacos in their purse. What's in the taco, Heather?)

I want to see inside your purse.

I came across this blog today and had a great idea. CLICK HERE TO SEE WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. I'm sure you'll agree its a wonderful idea. Nobody has nothin' on what MOPS moms have in their purses. Let's do our own MOPS version. Who wants to play?

Empty the contents of your purse and photograph them and send them to me. (Me being Michele, in case you have no idea who writes this blog.) My email address is staples underscore michele AT yahoo DOT com. (Have you ever wondered why people spell out their email address? Apparently if you write it like a normal email address spamers can get your address. Aren't you glad you have me around?) I will then post them here on our blog for all the MOPS moms to see. There may be a prize for the most outrageous contents.

On your marks, get set, GO TAKE A PICTURE OF YOUR PURSE NOW! If you don't I might loose my sanity. It's the last few weeks before school starts and my kids might be driving me crazy. My sanity is counting on you.
