Purses and Underwear

While driving in the car with my youngest son, he was contemplating why I changed purses so much. You know that is right next to the thoughts about what he is going to eat when we arrive home.

Son: Mom why do you keep getting new purses?

Me: Well for one I did not buy this purse, Grandma gave me this purse last time we visited.

Son: Ok, but why did you change purses?

Me: It is winter time, and women like to change purses as the seasons change. It is kind of like shoes, women change shoes to match their outfit.

Son: But WHY do you change purses and shoes, what is wrong with the one that you had?

Me: We just do honey, we like to change shoes and purses about as often as you change underwear.

Son: (deep in thought) But I HAVE to change underwear….

(this is me with a big grin knowing I have instilled the Mom motto: make sure you have clean underwear on when you leave the house).

Ah, not sure how my son will do if he marries a girly girl. I am trying future daughter in laws, just know I am trying.

PS- No that is not my purse, but sure wish it was =)
