In the realm of parenting, a handbag is meant for essential items like wallets, car keys, mobile phones, lip balm, and occasionally, a snack item like a bag of Cheetos. However, if you’ve ever rummaged through a mom’s purse, you know that this is merely the tip of the iceberg.
Enter actress and mother of three, Jennifer Lee, who recently showcased the intriguing contents of her backpack in a lively Instagram video. She amusingly titled the segment, “On today’s episode of ‘What’s In My Bag?’ we delve into the mysteries of my beloved tote,” resonating with mothers everywhere who can only nod in agreement.
Jennifer began her comedic display by pulling out an assortment of heart-shaped stickers, exclaiming, “Hearts, more hearts!” Are there any mothers out there without a collection of crumpled stickers hiding in their bags? Along with the stickers, she uncovered what she humorously referred to as a “honey thing” (a tool for stirring honey), a curious geode (“why, though?”), a package of pens, an abundance of actual pens, a lone dollar bill, and a teabag.
Recently, I had a visit from my own mother, and it became clear that even after your children have flown the nest, you still find yourself carrying their essentials. Nail clippers? Check. A small bottle of water? Check. A rubber stamp bearing my previous address (“just in case you needed it”)? Check. The list never seems to end.
Among the more impressive finds was her handwritten day planner. Instead of relying on digital calendars or list apps, she meticulously jots down her daily activities. This simple act struck a chord with me; it’s the little things that make a difference.
Jennifer is a relatable mom figure for many. Whether she’s selling Girl Scout cookies outside a supermarket, reading aloud from the book Go The F*** To Sleep with utmost seriousness, or providing invaluable advice to new parents, she embodies the authenticity we all appreciate.
And let’s not forget her candidness — she even joked about being “a little tipsy” while cleaning out her purse, providing us with a much-needed chuckle.
