I knew I was my "mom" the first time I said, "If you do NOT settle down, I am going to pull this car OVER!" lol

Parents are role models, too bad some assume such bad roles!! :(
The lucky kids are the ones who complain about things as mundane as clothes baskets!! :D

After teen years of swearing they would raise THEIR kids different,
both my daughters said that when they opened their mouths to their kids, they heard MY voice come out, saying the very same thing I'd said to them.

I just smile and think "Gotcha!!!"

Next time they arrive with a laundry basket, you should pretend not to know THEM! :D :D

It does my heart SOOO much good when I see THEM bringing things to events in laundry baskets. With their names on them!
