What Mom Taught Us

Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 10, and here’s a reminder of just a few of the things our moms taught us:

My mother taught me about ANTICIPATION: “Just wait until your father gets home.”

My mother taught me LOGIC: “If you fall off that swing and break your neck, you’re not going to the store with me.”

My mother taught me MEDICAL SCIENCE: “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 I know when you’re cold?”

My mother taught me about RECEIVING: “You’re going to get it when we get home!”

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 the WISDOM OF AGE: “When you get to be my age, you’ll understand.”

My mother taught me about JUSTICE: “One day you’ll have kids, and then you’ll see what it’s like.”
