*** These familiar saying ~ A Chuckle to start the day. ***

Happy Saturday! As promised I am making my blogs in honor of all the Mom's out there including my own who is no longer with me. I found this on the web, no author was listed. I had to laugh at some of these. Linda (nurse) and I were talking about them and we even came up with a few to add to it.

Which one is your favorite? Any you use now? Can you add some to this list? Please let me know I want to hear from YOU.
Enjoy!






~* Universal Mom Sayings *~

These familiar saying have somehow been handed down from mother to daugther right through the ages. How many of these did you grow up with?

*Who do you think you are?

*Ask your father (closely followed by "Ask your Mother")

*Bored! How can you be bored? I was never bored at your age.

*I'll treat you like an adult when you start acting like an adult!

*Look at me when I'm talking to you.

*Don't you roll your eyes at me!

*Don't pick it, it'll get infected.

*I don't care if "insert child's name here" Mum said yes.

*You'll put your eye out with that thing!

*I'm going to give you to the count to three.

*Don't put that thing in your mouth, you don't know where it's been.

*Wear clean underwear in case you get in an accident and have to go to hospital.

*Don't cross your eyes like that, one day they'll freeze that way.

*I don't care who started it, I'll finish it!

*Don't EVER let me catch you doing that again!

*Why? Because I SAID SO, that's why!?!

*If such and such jumped off a cliff, would you jump too?

*If I catch you doing that one more time, I'll...

*Your father is going to hear about THIS when he gets home!

*If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

*How many times do I have to tell you, don't throw things in the house!

*Do you think your clothes are going to pick themselves up?

*"I don't know" is NOT an answer!

*I know it's not fair. Life isn't fair.

*Don't talk back to me

*If you fall off that swing and break your neck,
don't come crying to me.

*When that lawn mower cuts off your toes, don't come running to me."

*You're just like your father.

*When you get to be my age, you will understand.

*Do as I say not as I do

*I hope one day you have children that act just like you.







Here is a Beautiful Poem I found as well.

Mother, If I Could Give You...
~Author Unknown


If I could give you diamonds for each tear you cried for me.
If I could five you sapphires for each truth you’ve helped me see.
If I could give you rubies for the heartache that you’ve known.
If I could give you pearls for the wisdom that you’ve shown.


Then you’ll have a treasure, mother, that would mount up to the skies.
That would almost match the sparkle in your kind and loving eyes.


But I have no pearls, no diamonds, as I’m sure you’re well aware.
So I’ll give you gifts more precious; my devotion, love and care.
