A Bag Full of Bikini Babes

If you are thinking of having children, you need to read this article. One thing that any prospective parent needs to know, is that in parenthood, you need to be prepared for the unexpected.

Just moments ago I was cleaning my son's room. Again. The unbelievable state that my sons keep their rooms in is another article altogether. I never know what I'll find under the piles of dirty clothes. But I digress. There I was, unaware as to what was about to be discovered, innocently cleaning up trash and dirty socks, beginning my day as normal.

You'll need a bit of background before I continue. My boys just recently acquired bunk beds, and they've found that Mom can't see what is going on in the top bunk. The few times I have ventured up the ladder to see the upper mattress area, I've found trash wrappers, pens, and even empty soda cans. On one such venture I discovered that my youngest son, who is seven, has a calendar he keeps up on the wall by the top mattress. For whatever reason, he has begun marking off each day with a Sharpie marker as if he's a prisoner counting down the days to his release.

Because of the recent addition to the bunk beds, the room has been in utter chaos. I decided it was time to straighten it out. So there I was, an armful of dirty clothes, crumbled papers in hand, and I noticed what appeared to be a Ziploc sandwich bag. Picking it up, I wondered why a sandwich bag would be in the bedroom. It was then, at that very moment, that my eyes focused in on what was inside the bag.
