    Talking Mama Said...

    Every Mom (including me) has said something that, now as an adult, you know she never would have or could have done.

    What has your Mama Said?


    ex: You and a sibling are fighting in the back of the car - "Don't make me come back there you two"

    Hm, my mom was not one to throw out empty threats! I heard about how once she threatened to throw out my siblings' toys if they didn't clean them up. When they didn't comply, I believe she went through with it.

    "Just wait til your dad gets home" We always hoped if we were good she would forget but she never did. We knew when dad got home it was spanking time.

    Smile

    Momisms....... luv 'em!

    "Wipe that smile off your face."
    "Look me in the eye when you say that, young lady."
    "Now, go tell your sister you love her."

    And of course, reaching my middle name when she called me meant
    t-r-o-u-b-l-e...........
    Spiritual:
    "You are fearfully and wonderfully made." Please... respect life.

    Financial:
    Debt free, hoping to stay that way!
