Nail files and other long skinny objects

Sitting in the "guest room" with my boys. It's our hangout post-bath and pre-bedtime.
Youngest tells me my nails are too tall.
Agreed and ask him if he wants to go fine my nail file.
Eagerly he goes to find it in the top drawer of my nightstand.

As I wait for him to return I think of what I actually have in the top drawer of my nightstand.
Old journals that I started for my kids.
Tamoxifen, Vitamin D and Ambien (medication of choice)
Chapstick
Nail File
and....

"Mommy, Is this it? Why is my name on it?"

Husband and I burst out laughing as my four year old holds up my pregnancy test from 2003.
I'm sentimental
And apparently a type of hoarder.
Guess it's time to clean out the nightstand.
