Even if you can't spot its harried driver, you can tell a car belongs to a mother and is frequently used to ferry kids around when...
... there are dirty kid-sized socks in the coffee holder...
... and a peek under the armrest reveals a lost Dora slipper that has been the cause of much whining in the recent past.
Of course, the car seats are a dead giveaway too.
On a related note: If you're hitching a ride with me and bringing your own coffee, you're probably better off hanging on it because the coffee holders have seen better days and often play host to a variety of suspect, not to mention smelly, objects.
LOL! Totally relate!
ReplyDeleteLOL - Thanks for the warning :)
ReplyDeleteThe proof of my kid ferrying car is in the kurmura, painted papers, caps, pencils, cars.....
ReplyDeleteMy car is relatively free from food debris because I have a strict no-eating-in-the-car rule. Plus, I pay someone to clean it from top to bottom once a week :-)
Deleteha ha... i even hav a stapler and box of staple pins which were brought in to staple some project sheet.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Yeah, if that went to my car for any reason, it would probably be months before it made it back home.
Delete‘Must-have’ car accessories for the mommy to have a good drive, I soppose! Nice post!
ReplyDeleteReally? Dirty socks? I think noise reduction headphones might be a more useful accessory :-P
DeleteI am getting there! I have sticky chocolate debris and biscuit crumbs all over the car!
ReplyDeleteUgh. Food mess I cannot handle. I rarely allow them to eat in the car, helps that most of our drives are super short
DeleteTotally, loved the description. Can relate to it totally
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. These are exactly two of the disgusting things that seem to live in my car. Its super annoying. I am carrying a billion things every time from the car to home so I never manage to have enough arms to ferry this stuff as well (not that I want to. I refuse to take responsibility for, especially, the socks). Gah, Kids.
ReplyDeleteExactly! I am never 'hands-free' when going from car to home so much of this stuff stays in the car for days, sometimes months.
DeleteAha! That's where the missing lizard chappal must be *smacks self for missing the obvious* However, I'm too scared to stick my fingers down there. I'm sure the peanut-pretzel-cheese goop beneath has mutated into an angry monster with an appetite for dirty socks and half-eaten crayons. I know, food in the car -- totally gross. But that rule was hurled out of the window, along with several others (rules I mean), when the second kid came along. Maybe if I have a third, I won't notice the piling dishes or laundry.
