The Contents of My Pocket

Perhaps there are more glamorous pocket collections. I can imagine some, I guess, but this one made me laugh. Have you ever emptied your pocket and smiled at the randomness of it all? I mean, Mr. Potato head's tongue? A glass rock from the gift shop at the Maui Aquarium? Ten cents, a safety pin and a matchbox car? It's classic mid-motherhood fare.

A picture is truly worth a thousand words. Looks like an interesting and diverse life to me.

John Moe, NPR/comedian, sometimes takes pictures of the random assortment of toys on the floor, like it's a crime scene, and posts it to Twitter with the caption:

"This is the hardest part about being a cop. Finding scenes like this. Ya never get used to it."

This assortment reminded me of that!

Good thing you had a pocket- it might slow you down to have all those things in your hands all day.
