A childhood belief about periods

When I was in about 3rd grade I still didnt know about periods so I always used to tink that the pads in my moms bathroom were things kinda like diapers, so when my mom had to go pee in public, shed just go in the pad. So one day I went to school with a pad in my underwear and during class I had to go pee. So I just went in my pants. Then, to my surprise the pee didnt soak into the pad to well, I ended up going home that day early because my pants were all wet. Once I found out wat pads were really used for I felt so embarassed and so stupid...
