Momism's!

How do you measure a mother's love? Perhaps described as the greatest deepest love ever known.
Each year that passes I am grateful for my mom, and I appreciate her more and more. As each year passes I am grateful for her words of wisdom when I was confused or troubled, her hugs just because , when I was not feeling well, or when I really screwed up and just needed a hug, her scolding words at times when I was out of line, her ears to listen each and every time I needed someone to talk to, even when I didn't want to listen...even now that I am older and a mom myself..she is my dearest friend...in a nutshell her unconditional love I know I always have.

I realize the older I get just how special a mom really is...being a mom myself to a wonderful son, the bond between a mother and her child is one of the greatest blessings and I cherish every moment. Unconditional love is so powerful.

On a funny note..I was also reminded of all the great wisdom our mothers pass on to us and how we use it on our children...you know those "momisms"..how many of these do you remember? lol

•Money does not grow on trees.
•Don't make that face or it'll freeze in that position.
•If I talked to my mother like you talk to me....
•Always change your underwear; you never know when you'll have an accident.
•Be careful or you'll put your eye out.
•What if everyone jumped off a cliff? Would you do it, too?
•You have enough dirt behind those ears to grow potatoes!
•Close that door! Were you born in a barn?
•If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.
•Don't put that in your mouth; you don't know where it's been!
•Be careful what you wish for, it might come true.
•Don't eat those, they will stunt your growth.
•If you don't eat those, you will stunt your growth.
•What's meant to be, is meant to be. (Mom only used this when something bad happened or when you experienced a disappointment.)
•It doesn't matter what you accomplish, I'll always be proud of you.
•I hope that when you grow up, you have kids "Just Like you"!
•Because I'm your mother that's why.
•This is why we can't have nice things.
•If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times.
•Eat your vegetables, there are poor children out there that would be happy to have some broccoli to eat!
•If you fall out of that tree and break you leg , don't come running to me.
•I brought you into this world and I can take you OUT !!
•Honestly... You'd lose your head if it wasn't attached!
•Children should be seen and not heard!
Bored! How can you be bored? I was never bored at your age
