Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

my son was really sick in the end of jan. i ended up making an appointment for him one morning and was told to be there in like 30 min. i didnt have much time to get ready. he was running high fevers and had a little trouble breathing. so i rushed over there. after his appointment i was supposed to take him to the childrens hospital for blood work. but he was running out of diapers in his diaper bag. so i had to swing by the navy exchange. while i was there i was going to get some hygene items (brush, deodorant, makeup, tooth brush heads...). and a couple of other things i needed so i wouldnt be out all day. my son didnt fit in the shopping cart and i didnt have many places to put anything. all the large items like the diapers i put at my sons feet. i started to put the smaller things in there too but he kept trying to put them in his mouth. so i ended up putting them in the folding hood to the stroller. i was texting my husband (deployed) because we have been having alot of arguments. and my mind was in a million places. i went to pay for everything but forgot all the small items in the hood. by the time i realized what had happened there were 2 undercover officers that stopped me. i told them what was going on and immediately offered to pay. he said it was too late and i ended up getting arrested. i just received a court date scheduled for march to appear in a magistrates court. however i will already be in north carolina. husband is stationed there and will be returning from deployment by june so i already have a house there. i also have no idea what to expect or what to do at this point. any help is welcome.
