How Embarrassing!!!

I had the most embarrassing moment, yesterday, in Sunday School. Amber had fallen asleep during Sacrament Meeting so I was holding her in my lap. A few minutes after Gospel Doctrine started, Amber woke up and started to cry. I quickly whisked her up to take her out, when I realized that my skirt did not come with me. I instantly sat back down and noticed that my skirt was caught underneath my high heel. My friend, sitting next to me, said, "yeah, your skirt's not on." As I tried to unhook my skirt from my shoe and then pull it back up, Amber kept getting louder. I was trying to stand back up to take her out, but was not sure if my skirt was all the way on. I knew that everyone was staring my way because of Amber's commotion and the fact that I was on the third row. I finally got up the courage to pick her up again and walk out. When I got in the hallway, I just started laughing. I was so mortified, but what could I do? I guess the moral of this story is . . . always wear a slip to Church . . . just in case! (And, no, I was not wearing one.)

Glad you can laugh about it and share your "special" moment. You are awesome!

I had a moment like that--but I had one of those pleated skirts--and it had pulled up too high--so the "g's" were a showing off. No one said anything--so I didn't know until I was in the restroom. Ya--not much I could do about that fun. Just much more careful that things are "pulled down". I love dealing with the wind too! Seriously! Glad you've recovered!

That happened to me a few years back and I agree it IS very embarrasing! But luckly I was wearing a black skirt with a black slip, but still very embarrasing! I feel for you. Too bad the person behind you didn't have a camera for you to add pictures to the whole thing, now that would be funny! J/K :)

...still giggling after reading about this on facebook! The funny thing is that the mental images in my mind are all of me in very similar situations. Let's just say I know how you feel... Thanks for the laugh!

Oh no! You're a good sport to laugh about it. :) I'm sure I would have been red as a tomato for the rest of my church meetings!
