Phrases that are still with me.
Some of these phrases still come to mind or spew forth from my lips. These "sayings" are from the words of my dear , late mother. I bet all of you can add some to this list that are ingrained in your hearts and minds.
1. Finish eating all your food. There are so many hungry people in the world today.
2. Wait until your father comes home.
3. Stop crossing your eyes or they might stay that way.
4. Just wait until you have grandkids of your own and then you will understand what I mean.
5. Don't run with those scissors.
6. Eat your carrots so you don't go blind.
7. Don't get upset over unimportant things.
8. Please close the refrigerator door because you are letting out all that cold air.
9. Don't talk with food in your mouth.
10. This one is from the book of the late Georgia author, Lewis Grizzard, on what his mother always reminded him to do. " Always wear clean underwear, for you never know when you might get in an accident and have to be taken to the hospital, where they might have to cut your underwear off."
