Mom's Endless Toil..
The other day my nearly eighteen year old son told me: Why do you bother saying it again and again? Why don't you make an itemized list of all the things that I need to hear over and over again, and when you want to yell at me, spare yourself all the energy you expend in yelling and just say: Number 4! Number 123!
Well, it looks like someone had a somewhat similar thought.... here, and actually compiled a list of all the things that every mom probably says to her kids.. what ... 50,000 times in a lifetime? A year, more likely... I swear, nothing is missing there.. not even the wash behind your ears, jumping from a cliff and the PhD!
Thanks to Norm for sharing.
