Borrowing Pens

Aside from collecting Starbucks coffee mugs, I also have a collection of promotional pens, mostly from hotels. However, I have two daughters who love to write and would frequently take and put my collectable pens out for a glide. It’s not that that they don’t have a lot of pencils, pens, and crayons lying around. They probably just want to borrow mom’s pen. Is this a prelude wanting to borrow mom’s dress, mom’s shoes, etc.?
