After all, if it weren't for our mothers, we wouldn't be around!?!? There are so many wonderful qualities my mother had, but it seems a perfec
t time to talk about the traits of our moms’ we swore we’d never adopt but have — in spite of our best efforts. I remember when the words- “Because I said so, that's why” slipped out. I could not believe those wor
ds escaped my lips! I swore I would NEVER say things like that. Wasn't long into motherhood that I was eating lots of crow.
Here are just a few of those expressions. I am sure you can add a few of your own in the comments:
How many times do I have to tell you?
If I've told you once ... I've told you a thousand times.
(Now I just keep a pair in the glovebox just in case!!??)
Someday your face will freeze like that!
Are you going out dressed like that?
If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Did you know that 'The Hand That Rocks the Cradle' is the name of a really fine horror movie? You should see it.
Happy Mother's Day to you my friend and I know that those boyz realize that they are lucky brats to have landed in your universe. You are the best role model and teacher they could have. You've done a super job of trying to make them into well mannered, non-farting, responsible MEN...I hope they heed you.

My sister and I have another "horror movie" statement(I think it was even a Disney flick.. IF I remember my Fairy Tales...) we use with each other...
"Mirror, mirror, on the wall... I AM MY MOTHER AFTER ALL."
Just sayin..
