In Which They Found My Lingerie Drawer

August 22, 2009 by Amy

This has got to be one for the books.  One that I may regret posting but it’s just too funny not to share.  The girls have found my lingerie drawer.  They’re trying stuff on.  I told them they were my other nightgowns.  Emma found an *ahem* nurse outfit and *loved it*.  I looked up to see in her in it and chanted “this is not happening” to myself.

Emma:  Mommy, I didn’t know you used to be a nurse!  Why didn’t you tell me?

I was going to ignore her but I imagined her saying Did you know my Mommy used to be a nurse!? to be father in law and decided to somehow explain.

Me: I wasn’t a nurse.  I just…

Emma: dress up?

Me: Yeah…

Emma: Oh, I know!  You wore that for Halloween!

Me: No, um…

Emma: Oh I know, you used to dress up like a nurse when you were a little girl.

*crickets*

Emma: Oh, I *love* this red dress

Lexi: Oh, man, this one is showing my boobs!

Emma, holding up an untied th*ng: Mommy, what is this?!

Me: Uh, not sure

Emma: I think it goes on your head.

Oh my word, this is hilarious!

    I laughed so hard reading this that Leila got out of bed to find out what was so funny! The only thing funnier would be if you had added photos. Definitely one for the books!!

    That is just AWESOME! I am SO glad you posted this – because I know it makes you want to die with embarrassment, but it is hilarious. And so real!

    I must do something about hiding my unmentionables better. Oh, my. Where to put them?
