Victoria's Secret?

I grab the mail every day when I pick my children up from the bus stop.  I usually shove the mail into one of the backpacks and make a kid drag it up to the house for me.  (We get lots of mail and our driveway is very, very long.)  When the kids and I get to the house I go through book bags looking for homework and memo's from the teachers and I put the mail on the counter. 

One day last year I forgot to take the mail out of Deena's bag before she went to school.  When Deena got home she scolded me for leaving mail in her book bag.  She then told me she and Ethan only looked at the girl magazine once before the teacher asked what was going on.  I was instantly on alert as I dug through Deena's bag to see just what I had sent to school with her.  It turns out it was a Victoria's Secret catalog with a tall, thin woman standing on the cover in her bra and undies.  Oops, but it could've been worse!

So today in the mail I got another Victoria's Secret magazine.  I tried to bury it between other pieces of mail so the girls wouldn't see it - they don't need to know about sexy undies just yet.  But I'm guessing Deena saw enough to know what it was because she said: "Mommy, please don't EVER put hot lady magazines in my book bag again!"  That sounds waaaaay worse than it really is...

  2. You're not kidding! I can only imagine what her (male) teacher thought when he saw it in her bag. Thanks for stopping :)
