Stuff Mom Always Said!

One of the ladies at church gave a copy of this to all the ladies last week.  It is SOOOOOOOOOOOO true!  So true, in fact, that I thought I would share it so you could use them, too!  :D

• A little soap and water never killed anybody.
• Leave your sister (brother) alone!
• How can you be hungry?  You just ate an hour ago!
• There's enough dirt behind those ears to grow potatoes.
• If you're bored, I can always find something for you to do.
• It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I don't trust everyone else.
• Wipe your feet!
• When you have kids of your own, you'll understand.
• Pick that up before somebody trips on it and breaks their neck!
• Running away?  Don't let the door hit you in the rear.
• I said CLOSE the door, I didn't say SLAM it!
• Look at this room!  It looks like a pigsty!
• So what if Sally's mom let her do it?  If Sally's mom let her jump off the Empire State Building, would you want me to let you do it, too?
• Just wait until your Dad gets home.
• Don't make me come in there!
• I didn't ask who put it there, I said, "Pick it up!"
• You're the oldest....you should know better!
• Don't go out with a wet head, you'll catch cold.
• You can't find it?  Well, if you'd put things where they belonged, you wouldn't have this problem.
• A little "birdy" told me.
• When you have YOUR own house, you can make YOUR own rules!

I guess I probably had all of these directed to me from mom, however, I don't think I repeated many of them to our kids (did I?).  I know for sure one that mom DIDN'T use was the one, "Just wait until your Dad gets home."  Nope!  She ALWAYS took care of the situation herself!  I pretty much did, too!  Dearest mother!  How we all miss you and Dad!  Can't wait to see you in heaven! 

And in case I haven't said it lately, I love you all!
