Most Dear & Beloved Mothers,
Here’s the haps:
I wanted to take a break from the current series to wish all of you moms, mothers, aunts, family friends, and others a very happy Mother’s Day. The last two days of the series are scheduled for Monday and Tuesday. Hopefully, a few of these memes and things will bring a smile to your face, as there are some that any parent or childcare giver will relate to. I mention childcare givers because these people frequently spend at least as much time with the child as the parent does, and are or will be an enormous influence in a kid’s life. I lived it growing up with my mom being in and out of hospitals, and my Aunt Gertie loving on me and caring for me. Daughter TNT has been such a caregiver and influencer for many years. Even though she has no biological children, her hand has “rocked many cradles.” Anyway, I hope all of you wonderful and awesome people have a great day. I’ll start this with a link to a radio ad (It wouldn’t embed for whatever reason) for Outback Steakhouse that aired back in the 2010s or something like that. It’s followed by a picture that just strikes me as an embodiment of motherhood. Then some memes interspersed with momisms, followed by a couple of five-minute clips from the Smothers Brothers. Please enjoy.

A little birdy told me!

Life isn’t fair.

So what if Bob’s mom let him do it? If Bob’s mom let him jump off the Empire State Building, would you want me to let you do it too?

Always wear clean underwear in case you get in an accident.

When you have your own house then you can make the rules!

I can always tell when you’re lying.

Little pitchers have big ears.

What do you think, money grows on trees?

Enough is enough!

Say that again and I’ll wash your mouth out with soap.

If you’re too full to finish your dinner, you’re too full for dessert.

Think of those poor starving children in India…(or China, or Africa.)

If you don’t stop crying, I am going to give you something to cry about!

You had better wipe that smile off your face before I do it for you.

When did your last slave die?
I like comments and try to respond to them all if I can:
