Mom Sayings
Some were good - some not so good -
Any that you recall from your family?
"Some people just hate to have their opinions confused by facts" - when Man was 'on a roll'
"Dibble dabble, play in the gravel" - when child was playing in the sand/gravel after a rain
"I made it to be good" - when complimented on something she had cooked
"Let sleeping dogs lie" - when asked about circumstances surrounding her divorce
"Perfection is impossible; however, excellence is attainable" - when commenting on something she or I had made
"No point in crying over spilled milk - there's the bucket and sponge - go clean it up" - pretty much her approach to a lot of things.
