A Little Humor for Mother's Day....

I found these and just couldn't help sharing them.  After hearing stories from mom's childhood, and knowing some from my own, I couldn't resist posting these for y'all.

What I learned From My Mother:

1. My Mother Taught Me to Appreciate a Job Well Done: "If you're going to kill each other, do it outside. I just cleaned this room."

2. My Mother Taught Me Logic:  "Because I said so, that's why..."

3. My Mother Taught Me MORE Logic: "If you fall out of that swing and break your neck, you're not going to the store with me..."

4. My Mother Taught Me Foresight: "Make sure you wear clean underwear in case you're in an accident."

5. My Mother Taught Me Irony: "Keeping crying and I'll give you something to cry about..."

6. My Mother Taught Me About Osmosis: "Shut your mouth and eat your supper."

7. My Mother Taught Me About Persistence: "You'll sit there until all your spinach is gone."

8. My Mother Taught Me about Weather: "Your room looks like a Tornado just went through here."

9. My Mother Taught Me about Anticipation: "Just wait until we get home..."

10. My Mother Taught Me about Receiving: "You're gonna get it when we get home!" 

11. My Mother Taught Me Medical Science: "If you keep crossing your eyes like that, they'll stay that way."

12. My Mother Taught Me Humor: "If the mower cuts off your toes, don't come running to me."

13. My Mother Taught Me How to Become an Adult: "If you don't eat your vegetables, you'll never grow up."

14. My Mother Taught Me Genetics: "You're just like your father."

15. My Mother Taught Me about Roots: "Shut that door behind you. Were you born in a barn?"

16. My Mother Taught Me Wisdom: "When you get to be my age, you'll understand."

17. My Mother Taught Me about Justice: "One day you'll have kids.... and I hope they turn out just like you!"

Happy Mother's day!
In Christ's Service,
Sarah

Thanks! I'm glad you got a chuckle out of those. I should have mentioned in the post that I found it on Pinterest. And yes, mother's are just so wonderful. What's really funny is that more than likely I'll end up using some of those on my own kids someday! ;)
