Things My Mother Taught Me
My Mother taught me LOGIC..."If you fall off that swing and break your neck, you can't go to the store with me."
My Mother taught me MEDICINE..."If you don't stop crossing your eyes, they're going to freeze that way."
My Mother taught me TO THINK AHEAD..."If you don't pass your spelling test, you'll never get a good job!"
My Mother taught me ESP..."Put your sweater on ~ don't you think that I know when you're cold?"
My Mother taught me TO MEET A CHALLENGE..."What were you thinking? Answer me when I talk to you...Don't talk back to me!"
My Mother taught me HUMOR..."When that lawn mower cuts off your toes, don't come running to me."
My Mother taught me how to BECOME AN ADULT..."If you don't eat your vegetables, you'll never grow up.
My mother taught me ABOUT SEX..."How do you think you got here?"
My mother taught me about GENETICS..."You are just like your father!"
My mother taught me about my ROOTS..."Do you think you were born in a barn?"
My mother taught me about the WISDOM of AGE..."When you get to be my age, you will understand."
My mother taught me about ANTICIPATION..."Just wait until your father gets home."
My mother taught me about RECEIVING..."You are going to get it when we get home."
And, my all-time favorite - JUSTICE..."One day you'll have kids, and I hope they turn out just like YOU -- then you'll see what it's like."
Settle down...? Why would we want to do that??!

At a recent show in our park, one of our guys (with his wife in Mom's part) did that piece. As I recall he had several more "My mother taught me" items. It went over very well, because it seems we all had the same mother! Thanks for sharing it again, and Happy Mothers Day to you and all your lady readers!
Nice thoghts, Donna. Have a great Mother's Day.
Thank you...thank you...thank you! Today has been rough without my mom, my daughter or my grandson but your post has both Jerry and myself rolling in laughter.
By the way, was your mother our mother too? It seems your mother, Jerry's mother and my mother had the same exact things to say!
Your Mothers Day post was great! We laughed all the way to the bottom, all of it is so true.
