Happy Mother's Day 2018

By
Real Estate Agent


I want to take this opportunity to wish all mothers out there a wonderful and very special Mother’s Day.  I also want to provide tidbits of wisdom about moms, from the perception of the younger set:

 

1) Moms are fantastic, even when they're spelt upside down they're still WOW!
 

2) Mothers are basically part of a scientific experiment to prove that sleep is not a crucial part of human life.

3) There's only one thing stronger than a mother's love - garlic breath.

4) An average mother can perform the job of an air traffic controller, lifesaver and Donald Trump's personal assistant, all simultaneously.

5) Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that could have been avoided if we had only listened to mom.

6) Mothers understand why animals eat their young...

7) If you think your work is almost done raising children, don't forget you'll be a grandmother too.

8) You know you're a mother when your child throws up and you run to catch it before it hits the rug.

9) Mothers have the uncanny gift of serving leftovers out of nothing. In fact, our mom is so good, that the original meal has yet to be found.

My wife who is home to our toy poodle makes sure nothing is wasted in our fridge. We respect what we have and know not everyone has what we do or what our Mom's before that made us feel special and respect the earth and all thing in it.

I still miss my mom very much. Here birthday was 5/31 and I used to send her about 6 raunchy cards from just before Mother's Day to her birthday usually with a dozen roses. She loved the slightly dirty humor. cheers cvc

I don't believe we ever get over the loss of our mothers.  My mom passed in 1975, and I continue to miss her every day.

Myrl, those MOM selections were so accurately true and also funny.  Great idea to share with us.  I have nine children - now adults; however, I related to some of those quotes and sayings and chuckled away.
