What's your missing item?

Everyone has those items that always disappear and it seems like you're constantly buying them and the next minute they're gone again and you're buying more.

For some it may be batteries.  You buy a value pack of batteries but as soon as your remote quits working you go to grab some batteries but can't find any.

For others it may be socks.  How many of you feel like the washing machine is eating your socks because after folding you always have those few socks with no pair?

Some of you may constantly be searching for a pen.  You get an important phone call and go to grab a pen to write down some information and you can't seem to find one even though you know you just found 5 buried in the couch the day before.

My "item" that I feel I'm always buying and they disappear are hair bows/clips.  I have lots of bows that I've made for Ashlyn and lots of clips that we've bought for her but every time we need one we can never find one!  Seriously, where do all these items disappear to?

Well, I can't really tell you where your socks go because 99% of the time our socks always have a match and our pen drawer is pretty well stocked.  I did, however, find the answer to my own hairbow dilemma.
The other day Bryson was sitting on his drum stool in the living room.  I saw a green bow under his stool and I asked him if he would please move his drum stool off of Ashlyn's bow.  He replied with a sweet "Sure Mom", picked up his stool, and moved it over.  The bow moved with the stool and it puzzled me.  I asked him to please stand up so that I could move the bow.  I picked the stool up and noticed that the bow had got stuck.
When I pulled it out, guess what came falling out after it?:
Bows and Clips...lots of bows and clips!!
Oh, the fun that kids bring to life!!
