Mom’s Advice Stays the Same Through the Ages

How many of you can recall the little things your mom said to you when you were young that made you roll your eyes? Now, I bet some of you say them to your children. Then, you think to yourself, “I’m becoming my mother.” You know what? That’s okay. You, like your mom and her mom and her mom, want to bless your children and keep them safe from physical and emotional hurts. And, for that, we honor all moms!

Here are a few sayings that we came up with here at the studio that we remember our moms saying:

“Look both ways before crossing the street.”

“Do as I say, not as I do.”

“Don’t bite your nails.”

“Eat your dinner. There are hungry children in Africa that would love to have something to eat.”

“Eat your vegetables.”

“Pretty is as pretty does.”

“Always wear clean underwear in case you get in a wreck.”

“Don’t cross your eyes. They might get stuck that way.”

“Watch your language, or I’ll wash your mouth out with soap.”

“Don’t chew with your mouth open.”

“I brought you into this world and I can take you out.”

“You’ll miss me when I’m gone.”

Feel free to comment with other sayings that your mom said (or says).
