Pencil Holder

I have a very clear memory of wrapping Christmas gifts with Marjorie when I was young (maybe early teens).  I cut two pieces of tape, put one on the end of my nose and used the other to tape the gift wrap.  Then I had the other one (on my nose) handy to use on the other end of the gift.  I thought this made perfect sense – where else do you put extra pieces of tape?  But Marjorie thought it was a little strange.  At the time, it truly didn’t strike me as a strange thing to do.  I had a little deja vue last night while I was giving the kids a bath.  Ellie brought a pencil into the bath and part way through the bath, she was holding the pencil, sort of looked around and then, apparently, decided that the best place to store it was in her cute little butt cheeks.  When I started laughing, she just sort of looked at me like “What’s the big deal?  It’s the perfect place to store it!”
