MOTHER'S DAY WISDOM
Principles of Motherhood
1. Motherhood ~~ If it was going to be easy, it never would have started with something called labor!
2. Shouting to make your children obey is like using the horn to steer your car; you get about the same results.
3. To be in your children's memories tomorrow, you have to be in their lives today.
4. The smartest advice on raising children is to enjoy them while they are still on your side.
5. Avenge yourself ~~~ Live long enough to be a problem to your children.
6. Grandparents are similar to a piece of string ~ handy to have around and easily wrapped around the fingers of grandchildren.
7. A child outgrows your lap, but never outgrows your heart.
8. Adolescence is the age when children try to bring up their parents.
9. Money isn't everything, but it sure keeps the kids in touch.
10. Adolescence is the age at which children stop asking questions because they know all the answers.

Having some work done on our home, I asked the contractor about payment. Among the options I suggested was "first born child".
His response, "We currently have 4 children for sale ourselves so we wouldn’t be interested in that. Unless their pre-teen…..you know…. when they still like you……still listen to you…… still know you have just a little more knowledge they do."
Can't argue with that.
