How fun to read everyone's memories, I see a lot that my mom used. The one - your face is going to freeze that way - was used when we made ugly faces at each other (me and my sisters) and if we crossed our eyes she would say they are going to get stuck like that, then she would tells us that our aunt, one of her least favorite relatives, got her eyes stuck crossed and had to hit her head upside the wall really hard to get them unstuck! And we believed it! But one of my all time favorites that not a lot of people heard was "you are breeding a scab" - isn't that wild!!!! She told us that when we were doing something wrong meaning you were going to get a whippin if you kept it up!
